The right time to read the intention of fasting Ramadan (Freepic)

YOGYAKARTA - Every worship in Islam must begin with reading intention. Likewise when fasting in the month of Ramadan. Many wonder when is the right time to read the intention of fasting Ramadan?

Not a few Muslims are still confused about the time chosen to say the intention of fasting. Some read out the intention before the call to prayer of Fajr reverberates. There are also those who read the intention of fasting at night after tarawih prayer.

As an insight in the implementation of worship, let's look at the proper time provisions to read the intention of fasting Ramadan and pray or read it.

Prayers of the intention of fasting Ramadan must be understood by Muslims, from adults and children. This reading of the intention of fasting can also be taught to young children, although it is not yet mandatory to fast.

There are various versions of Ramadan's intention to be chosen to recite. The following is the prayer of the intention of fasting Ramadan which is often used:

Nawaitu shouma ghodin an adaai fardhi syahri Romadhoona hadzihis-sati lillahi ta aala."

Meaning: I intend to fast on the next day to perform fardhu in the month of Ramadan this year because of Allah Ta in style.

In addition, Muslims also need to remember to ensure that they finish eating 10 minutes before the call to prayer. After that, read the prayer of the intention of fasting the short Ramadan as follows:

"Wa bisawmi ghadinn nawaitu min shahri Ramadan"

Meaning: I intend to fast tomorrow in the month of Ramadan.

The scholars say that the right time to recite the intention of fasting Ramadan is at night. Prayers of the intention of fasting must be read out before dawn (break). In this context, the meaning of the time night is interpreted as the time between Maghrib and before dawn.

The explanation of the time to read the intention of fasting is also contained in the hadith narrated by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and Ibnu Majjah of Hafsah. In this hadith it is stated that reading the intention of fasting Ramadan when dawn is over, the law is invalid.

You can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't.

Meaning: Anyone who has no intention of fasting at night before dawn, then there is no fast for him.

If referring to the hadith above, the intention of fasting Ramadan can be read out at any time as long as it is still at night. So don't read the intention of fasting when dawn is up because the law is invalid.

The provision of time to read the intention of fasting Ramadan is also explained in Mazhab Imam Syafi. Based on this Mazhab, the intention of fasting Ramadan is done at night. The night in question is after sunset until before dawn.

This was conveyed by Sheikh Sulaiman Al-Bujairimi in his "Hasyiyatul Iqna", as follows:

You can't help it, you can't believe it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't help it, you can't.

Meaning: Required to have intentions at night for obligatory fasting such as fasting Ramadan, fasting qada, or fasting nazars. This requirement is based on the hadith of the Prophetullah Saw, 'Who does not pray for the intention before dawn, then there is no fast for him.' Therefore, there is no other way but to fast every day based on the editor of Zahir hadith.

That is the right time to read the intention of fasting based on hadith and Mazhab Imam Syafi. Muslims can read the prayer of the intention of fasting at night, after Maghrib until dawn to be called legal. Also read how to determine the version of Ramadan NU, Muhammadiyah, and the government.
