The questioner:
Please, Abu Majid from al-Sharqiyah. And peace be upon you. May Allah prolong your life. I have two questions for you, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. The first question is brief. I performed Hajj, and I was in the greater Hajj. Naturally, I was in the group, and we descended on the day we descended near the Haram. One of my companions asked me, “Are you in a state of wudu, or are you not in a state of wudu?” I said, “No, I am in a state of wudu.” Then I doubted that I was not in a state of wudu.
The Shaykh:
Were you in a state of wudu before, my brother?
The questioner:
Yes, yes, I was in a state of wudu and prepared, and the bus would come every little while, and so on. Okay. So, I mean, your weight is correct, I mean.
The Shaykh:
Look, my brother, as long as you are certain that you are in a state of wudu, then you are in your state of wudu, and the doubt has no effect.
The questioner:
The question is, I mean.
The Shaykh:
Certainty.
The questioner:
The second question.
The Shaykh:
Listen, may Allah guide you, whoever is certain of purity and doubts about the occurrence of a state of ritual impurity, the default is that the purity remains.
