    Itikaf Masjid Boundaries

    Posted by Muhammad Usman Khalid on March 30, 2024 at 10:15 pm

    Asalam Alikum. What are mosque boundaries for itikaf. Some scholars say you cannot go beyond prayer area/musallah to some masjid other facilities and masjid parking lot. Can we go outside briefly just for fresh air within masjid parking lot boundaries?

    One should spend more of one’s time within the mosque. However since it is a Nafal prayer therefore there are not hard rules defined for it. The restrictions generally assumed have no basis.

      JazakAllah. It seems their consensus since they said masjid restrooms, madarasa, cafeteria… are not inclusive of masjid

    Any activity that violates the spirit of Itikaf, which is worshiping with dedication in seclution, should be avoided.
