Subject: Re: wadhu Author: Laila Nasheeba [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:37:32 07/10/02 Wed Author Host/IP: dhcp024-210-245-129.woh.rr.com/24.210.245.129 In reply to: sheema 's message, "wadhu" on 16:20:42 07/10/02 Wed As Saalamu Alaikoum, Praise be to Allah. One does not have to make wudu before praying after taking a ghusl. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “… approach not al-salaah (the prayer) when you are in a drunken state until you know (the meaning) of what you utter, nor when you are in a state of janaabah (i.e., in a state of sexual impurity and have not yet taken a bath) except when travelling on the road, till you wash your whole body…” [al-Nisa’ 4:43] So the lack of ghusl has been made the factor that prevents a person from praying, and if a person has done ghusl, he has no reason not to pray. Both are acts of worship of the same type. The Prophet(saw) used to perform Wudu BEFORE taking a bath, not afterwards: Aa’ishah, who said: ‘When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did ghusl to purify himself from janaabah (impurity following intercourse), he would start by washing his hands three times, then he would do wudoo’ as for prayer, then he would run his fingers through his hair until he thought the water had reached his scalp, then he would pour water over his head three times, scooping the water up with both hands, and then he would wash the rest of his body.’ (Agreed upon). Ibn ‘Abd al-Birr said: The one who does ghusl to purify himself from janaabah, if he does not do wudoo’ but he makes water reach every part of his body, he has done what is required of him, because Allaah has enjoined upon the one who is in a state of janaabah to do ghusl, not wudoo’, when He says (interpretation of the meaning): “… if you are in a state of janaabah (i.e., had a sexual discharge), purify yourself (bathe your whole body.” [al-Maa’idah 5:6]. This is the consensus of the scholars and there is no dispute among them... AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST Laila Nasheeba [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
