Q: If Arif writes “You Go” on a sms on his phone with this in mind that he is thinking that he is saying this to his wife Rubab, but on the sms there is no mention of Rubab’s name neither her number is displayed in the ‘To’ Field, its all in the mind. Does the intention count then or is it just nothing. Bearing in mind, Arif suffers from constant wasawas in every aspect of life, marriage, salah, wudhu, ghusl.
A: It does not count.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
