Coming Late for I’tikaaf

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I made intention for I’tikaaf and got stuck in traffic, thus I came into the musjid property two to five minutes late. Is my I’tikaaf valid? Must I make it up next year?

Q: It will be a nafl itikaaf. No.

( وسنة مؤكدة في العشر الأخير من رمضان ) أي سنة كفاية كما في البرهان وغيره لاقترانها بعدم الإنكار على من لم يفعله من الصحابة ( مستحب في غيره من الأزمنة ) هو بمعنى غير المؤكدة ( الدر المختار 2/442)
