What relations are prohibited while "in retreat"?

Réponse

Imām Ibn al-Jawzī (d. 597/1201) summarized the scholars' opinions in his book "Zād al-Masīr" as follows:

  1. Only intercourse is prohibited. This is the view of the majority.
  2. It includes lesser acts such as touching and kissing. [Ibn Zayd]

Qatādah said, "A man who was in a state of iʿtikāf (seclusion in the masjid) would, if he left the masjid and met his wife, engage in intimacy with her if he wished. Allah admonished them about this."
