Question
In some areas it is seen that if no one in the area performs itikaf during the last ten days of Ramadan, a poor person from another area is given itikaf with food and remuneration. The question is, A. Doing so will save the locals from the sin of circumcision? B. Would it be permissible for that person to take remuneration for the days of Atikaf? 5211551968
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
A. The last ten days of the month of Ramadan are sunnat mu'akkada alal kifayah. If even one person sits in itikaf in a mosque, the locals will be saved from the sin of circumcision. And if no one does itikaf, then everyone in that area will be sinful. B. Atikaf is an act of worship which cannot be exchanged. Therefore, it is not permissible to take remuneration for etiquette. If a person is given Atikaf in return for a fee, that Atikaf will not be valid. Therefore, the locals cannot be relieved of their responsibilities by such Atikaf. 7419232666
