This study aimed to explain the rule of having an intention in an act that lacks intention, and then clarify its impact on the various performance of worship. This was achieved by studying the concept of having an intention and differentiating between the reality of intention and its ruling. Then the concept of worship together with the components of worship in terms of whether or not the intention is required were addressed. In addition, the core of dispute in this respect was analyzed through stating the opinions of the jurists and their evidence, and reaching the most correct opinion, and then ending with the sample practices from the branches of worship.
The researchers followed the inductive approach by tracking the opinions of the jurists on the main issue and the other sub-issues. They also applied the comparative analytical deductive approach by presenting the research terms clarifying the differences between the truth of the intention and its ruling, and the jurisprudential rulings supported by sample practices. The study concluded that the obligation is to accompany the ruling of the intention by not rejecting it or cutting it off in work that lacks intention, except for Hajj and Umrah..
