REGISTRATION FORM

if NO, your legal guardian MUST provide permission for you to participate in I'tikaf.

Any brothers intending to stay in I’tikaf must fill this form and read and agree to the conditions below:

  • Remember that you must stay inside the Musallah (green flowery carpet) for the whole time except for making wudu, fard ghusl (obligatory shower), or using the restroom. Men’s side water fountain is outside of the Musallah and thus should not be used by individuals sitting for Sunnah I’tikaf.
  • Only those in I’tikaf can eat/drink in the Masjid. Everyone must have an intention of I’tikaf to be permitted to eat and drink in the Masjid. Food will be provided for them inside the prayer area. No outside food/drink is allowed without prior approval from the Food Coordinator. Additionally, no one should enter the food pantry without permission from the Food Coordinator. Please remember to participate in serving and cleaning. Please make sure that crumbs/trash are completely clean after meals
  • Remember to abstain from worldly talk and to respect the Masjid and other worshippers at all times. Please be mindful of fellow worshippers’ rights/huquq.
  • Please make sure bathrooms remain clean and dry after use. It is a good habit to leave behind a cleaner bathroom than the way you found it. Try to keep yourself as pure as possible, and the Masjid.
  • All of those intending to sleep in the masjid should have a thick blanket or sleeping bag to lay on the ground in addition to something to cover themselves while sleeping (Thin sheets are not acceptable). Sleeping zones and areas will be assigned and coordinated by ICCL administration. All bedding and bags must be folded and put aside between Asr prayer until after Tarawih every day.
  • Those staying in I’tikaf are required to adhere to the schedule of events posted or stated by ICCL administration.
  • Please remember to compensate the Masjid for any utility use (electricity, water etc) and for the snack/drink preparations.

By signing this form, I agree to follow all I’tikaf and ICCL rules and regulations to the best of my ability.  I understand that failure to do so may unfortunately result in me being asked to leave I’tikaf.
