The ruling on pus coming out of a fistula
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Raise your voice, O Abd al-Rahman. If you please, may Allah preserve you. I want to ask you about a matter. May I ask the Shaykh about a matter? Yes, go ahead. May Allah keep you safe. I had surgery a month ago for a fistula, and pus comes out of me and falls on my clothes. I do not know if it is impure or not. Is there another question? No, no, thank you. Thank you, Abd al-Rahman. Go ahead, Shaykh.
Answer:
My brother, this pus is impure because it has changed from blood, and also because it comes out of the anus. So it is definitely impure. You must wash the garment if it gets on it, and you must clean yourself and put something in place to prevent it from coming out and spreading. You put something on the anus to prevent this substance from leaking. Then you perform wudu and pray. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
