60. Intentions for collective I’tikāf of Dawat-e-Islami

·         I am going to observe the Sunnaĥ I’tikāf on the last ten-days (or the whole month) of Ramadan-ul-Mubārak.

·         I will offer all five Ṣalāĥs with Jamā’at everyday in the first row with the first Takbīr.

·         Every day I will offer Taĥajjud, Ishrāq, Chāsht, Awwābīn, and at least in the odd nights (i.e., 21^st, 23^rd, 25^th, 27^th, 29^th nights) I will offer Ṣalāt-ut-Tasbīḥ.

·         I will recite the Holy Quran, Żikrullāĥ (remembering Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ in abundance) and recite Ṣalāt-‘Alan-Nabī abundantly.

·         Following the I’tikāf Jadwal (schedule), I will attend the Ḥalqaĥs (sessions) of learning and teaching.

·         I will attend the Madanī Mużākaraĥ from beginning        to end everyday (if I observe I’tikāf at the global Madanī Markaz – and in case of observing I’tikāf at any other Masjid – I will watch Madanī Mużākaraĥ during the first 20 days of Ramadan provided arrangements for watching it are made outside the Masjid.

·         I will observe Qufl-e-Madīnaĥ of my tongue, eyes, and stomach. C If somebody hurts me, showing forgiveness,    I will remain patient, and polite. C I will protect the Masjid from every type of foul smell and pollution.
