First:🌸 The intention 🌸<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

Intention in islam means The intention in a person\u2019s heart of a specific worship he wants to do, so before doing any worship, one must make his intention clear in his heart of that worship.🌺<\/p>\n

👉🏼No act of worship will be accepted from a Muslim unless it meets two basic conditions:<\/p>\n

a\u2013 Sincerity of intention towards Allaah<\/em><\/strong>, may He be exalted. This means that the aims of the person in his words and deeds, both outward and inward, should be to seek the Countenance of Allaah alone.\u00a0🌻🌻
\nb \u2013 It should be in accordance with the ways in which Allaah has ordained that He be worshipped only<\/em><\/strong>. That is achieved by following the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)🌻🌻<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Evidence of intention in islam🌷<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

👉🏼Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Indeed actions are judged according to their intentions.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We also understand from this statement that we must not say the intention out loud, we must only make it clear in the heart that am doing this specific deed as a worship to Allah because The intention is what is in the heart and not what is uttered by the tongue.🌺🌻🌺🌻<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🌟Also notice that our intention before and through every act of worship must be sincere to Allah only, not showing it off to catch people\u2019s attention for example or to seek their praise🌟<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What is (Ghusl) ?\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Ghusl is the Arabic word for a complete bath or a ritual bath.<\/p>\n

In certain cases, One needs to purify themselves by taking a full bath, that is doing the ritual bath (Ghusl) .<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

💫You are required to do the Ghusl in the following cases:<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1. The emission of semen or female orgasmic fluid, whether due to sexual intercourse, wet dreams or masturbation. 🌷<\/p>\n

2. After sexual intercourse. 🌷<\/p>\n

3. Menstruation and post-natal bleeding[1].🌷<\/p>\n
