Arabic (انتفاع) for utilization. In other words, it is the process of taking or extracting usufruct (manfa’ah) from something (asset, property, etc.). Technically, intifa’a is the right to the usufruct of a real estate (a house, a piece of land, etc.) or a service, without having the right to transfer the usufruct to someone else.
The subject matter of intifa’a is a non-transferable manfa’ah.
