Question
A person in I'tikaaf breaks his wudhu. Can he leave the Musjid to make wudhu although it is not his intention to perform Salaat or recite Qur'aan at that time?
Answer
If the Mu'takif's (the one who is in I'tikaaf) wudhu has broken, then he has to leave the Musjid to make wudhu because it is not permissible to be inside the Musjid without wudhu even if he will not be reciting Qur'aan or performing Salaat. However, the Mu'takif who makes wudhu and does not perform Tahyatul Wudhu is most unfortunate.
