Quote:
The Intention (Niyyah). The niyyah is an action performed by the heart and has nothing to do with the tongue. It denotes the desire to do something. Thus, a person should intend to per-form wudoo´ in his heart and not with his tongue, for it has not been reported of the Prophet () that he uttered his intention, neither in wudoo´, prayer, nor any other act of worship except for the Hajj. Allâh () is the most knowledgeable of what a per-son harbors in his heart.
The evidence that the niyyah is obligatory is the saying of the Messenger ():
“All deeds depend on their intention, and each person will be rewarded according to what they intend. Whoever makes Hijrah (Emmigration) for Allâh and His Messenger, then his [reward will be that of one who made] Hijrah for Allâh and His Messenger. But whoever made Hijrah for some worldly reason, or a woman who he desired to marry, then [the reward of] his Hijrah is that thing for which he made Hijrah.” (al-Bukhâri)
