How to Form the Intention in Ramadan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the method of intention in Ramadan? Is it for each day, or is it one intention for the whole month?
Answer:
It is for each day, because each day is an independent act of worship. If he gets up to eat the pre-dawn meal, he has made the intention. If he gets up to eat the pre-dawn meal and prepares the pre-dawn meal, he has made the intention. The intention is not with the tongue, saying "I intend," for that is not permissible. Rather, the intention is with the heart and also with the action. With the heart and with the action: if he gets up to prepare the pre-dawn meal and makes himself ready for fasting, that is the intention. Yes.
