"Things to Avoid During Itikaf, One of Them is Skin Contact with Lust"

"Dream - Itikaf is increasingly being done by Muslims during the last 10 days of the month of Ramadan. Itikaf is a time when someone stays in the mosque to worship and get closer to Allah SWT. When inside the mosque, Muslims continue to worship according to the teachings of Allah SWT and the Prophet Muhammad SAW. However, it is important to remember that Itikaf is not something that is done casually. Friends of Dream need to know the things that can invalidate the Itikaf worship."

Things to Avoid during Itikaf, One of them is Touching the Skin with Lust

The following is a translation of the given text from Bahasa to English while preserving any HTML tags: "Things that must be avoided during this itikaf are important to be understood by every Muslim, because if done, it can invalidate their worship. What are the things that must be avoided during itikaf? Read the complete review below as summarized by Dream from various sources!"

               

1. Touching Skin with Lust

The thing that must be avoided during itikaf is skin contact with sexual desire. According to the majority opinion, skin contact with sexual desire can invalidate itikaf if accompanied by the release of semen. This legal provision is based on analogy (qiyas) to the issue of fasting.

Sheikh Jalaluddin al-Mahalli said, "Among the opinions, the strongest (clear) one is that touching the skin with desire in parts other than the vagina, such as touching and kissing, can invalidate i'tikaf if sperm is released, if not, then it does not invalidate it, like the issue of fasting. According to the second opinion, it does not invalidate it absolutely. According to the third opinion, it does not invalidate it absolutely." (Sheikh Jalaluddin al-Mahalli, Kanz al-Raghibin, volume 2, page 98).

2. Intercourse

Having sexual intercourse inside the mosque is considered forbidden, as stated by Allah in Surah Al-Baqarah verse 187: "Do not have sexual relations with women while you are staying in the mosques." Itikaf (religious retreat) will be invalidated if a Muslim engages in sexual intercourse inside the mosque. Although, of course, such incidents are very rare in our surroundings.

               

Syekh Jalaluddin al-Mahalli said, "Itikaf is invalidated by engaging in sexual intercourse if the person remembers and knows that it is forbidden to engage in sexual intercourse inside the mosque, whether they engage in sexual intercourse inside the mosque or when they are about to leave it to fulfill their needs, because the ruling of itikaf is in effect in such a condition." (Syekh Jalaluddin al-Mahalli, Kanz al-Raghibin, volume 2, page 98).

3. Drunk

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The thing that must be avoided during the next itikaf is getting drunk. A drunk person is not considered a legitimate person to perform the itikaf, just like other acts of worship that require intention. Moreover, drinking alcohol (khamr) is something that is forbidden in Islamic teachings. If a Muslim is in a state of drunkenness while performing the itikaf, then the itikaf is considered invalid. When the person recovers from the state of drunkenness, they must start their itikaf intention again, even if they are still inside the mosque."

               

This rule applies if drunkenness is caused by intentional actions, such as drinking alcohol. However, if drunkenness occurs unintentionally, for example, due to unknowingly consuming food or drink that intoxicates, it will not cancel the performed itikaf.

4. Faint

The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The thing that must be avoided during itikaf is fainting. In the Book of Al-Masu'ah al-Fiqhiyyah, Al-ighma' is defined as "a disease in the heart or brain that can cause loss of consciousness and immobilization (helplessness) while still having minimal consciousness." Based on this definition, the word ighma' is more accurately translated as fainting, rather than being interpreted as epilepsy, as ighma' has no relation whatsoever to neurological disorders, while epilepsy is closely related to neurological diseases."

5. Lost Mind or Crazy

One of the most important things in worship is to have a healthy mind. With a healthy mind, a person can perform worship correctly and their intention for worship is considered valid. Severe mental disorders in people experiencing madness conditions cause them to lose self-control, so in that condition, they do not qualify to be considered as performing itikaf validly.

               

However, a crazy condition that can invalidate itikaf is if it is caused by the negligence of the person, for example, deliberately consuming drugs that make them crazy. If there is no element of negligence, then the condition will not invalidate the itikaf that has been performed, as long as the person is not expelled from the mosque. Therefore, when they recover in the near future, there is no need to repeat the intention of itikaf, but they can continue their previous intention of itikaf.
