Taammulat wa Ahkam fi Qawlihi Taala Walatubashiruhunna wa Antum Aakifuna fi al-Masajid (Reflections and Rulings on the Word of the Exalted: "And Do Not Have Relations with Them While You Are in Retreat in the Mosques") is a specialized legal and exegetical treatise authored by Abd al-Aziz bin Salih al-Ubayd. The work provides an analytical study and jurisprudential examination of the concluding legal directives found in verse 187 of Surah al-Baqarah.
Overview and Scope
The treatise focuses specifically on the divine statement: وَلَا تُبَاشِرُوهُنَّ وَأَنْتُمْ عَاكِفُونَ فِي الْمَسَاجِدِ ("And do not have relations with them while you are in retreat in the mosques"). It explores the linguistic and exegetical meanings of intimacy (mubasharah) and spiritual retreat (i'tikaf), analyzing the boundaries established by the text and the legal rulings derived by classical Muslim jurists concerning the conditions, nullifiers, and requirements of retreat within mosques.
