The wisdom of Imam al-Ghazālī رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه
وَعَلٰى اٰلِكَ وَاَصۡحٰبِكَ يَا حَبِيۡبَ اللّٰه اَلصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيۡكَ يَا رَسُوۡلَ اللّٰه
وَعَلٰى اٰلِكَ وَاَصۡحٰبِكَ يَا نُوۡرَ اللّٰه اَلصَّلٰوةُ وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيۡكَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللّٰه
نَوَيۡتُ سُنَّتَ الۡاِعۡتِكَافِ
I make intention of Sunna iꜤtikāf
Dear Islamic brothers! Whenever you enter a masjid, make intention of performing iʿtikāf whenever you remember. If you do this, then for as long as you stay inside, you will earn the reward of iʿtikāf.
Remember! Normally in masjids, Islamic law does not give us permission to eat, drink, sleep, partake in saḥūr or ifṭār, or even drink Zamzam water. Yet, if one makes intention of iʿtikāf, he will be allowed to do these actions in the masjid. It is also important that one shouldn’t make this intention of iʿtikāf just to eat, drink, or sleep. It should be done only to please Allah.
As mentioned in Fatāwā Shāmī, “If someone wants to eat, drink, or sleep in a masjid, he should intend iʿtikāf, engage in the dhikr of Allah for some time, and then do what he desired (now, he may eat, drink, or sleep).”
