I'tikaaf

Q: Please explain how will one need to make qadha of his sunnah itikaaf.

Q:

1. If a person in i'tikaaf leaves the masjid to go to the toilet, and at the same time has a shower, will his i'tikaaf break?

2. What if he has a long shower, will this matter?

3. If he goes to the shop to buy something after going to the toilet, would this break his i'tikaaf?

Q: If I intend to make itikaf for last 3 days of Ramadan but before sitting for it I get my period do I have to make qaza?

Q: May the sunnah i'tikaaf in Ramadhan be held in a facility which accommodates and facilitates the 5 times salaah, including the jumuah salaahs. This is presently a musallah which caters for the residents in the area, over 300 Muslim homes. Consent dues have been granted already for the musallah to continue, alhamdulillah. The nearest masjid is about 4 Kms away which has a limited space for the mu'takifeen. Kindly advise if we could hold the sunnah i'tikaaf for the musallees of the area?

Q: I made an intention for sunnah itekaaf in Ramadaan. Unfortunately I was only able to sit seven days due to haiz. (Mufti I had miscalculated my days.) I have sat 1 day in itekaaf as qazaa and my intention for the fast was for a Ramadaan qazaa fast. Is this correct or do I sit for 3 days in itekaaf? Is my fast correct? Mufti was I sinful in miscalculating my days? It grieves me greatly. Please advise.

Q: When sitting in i'tikaaf, is it permissible for a female to leave her designated room to wash her hands for eating?

Q: A person is making i'tikaaf in the Musjid. I know it will not be keeping to the spirit of i'tikaaf for him to play with his cellphone in the Musjid or make unnecessary calls. However, will it be permissible for him to use the cellphone for some important need?

Q: Can a person come out of the musjid to perform a sunnah wudhu while in sunnah I'tikaaf?

Q: Can a woman demarcate more than one room for her sunnah I'tikaaf in her home?

Q: A person who is submitted to dialisis 2 to 3 times a week can not fast. Can he still sit in the sunnah i'tikaaf? Keep in mind that he will also have to leave the masjid when going to the hospital. He could go straight to the hospital and return on the shortest route possible.
