Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it recommended for one who doubts that he is pure to perform wudu' in order to remove the doubt with certainty?
Answer:
As has passed before you, as has passed before you, if one is certain of his purity and doubts the occurrence of a state of ritual impurity, he remains pure and stays in his state of purity, because certainty is not removed by doubt. We do not open the door to ourselves by saying, "This is a precaution." We do not open the door to waswasah (whispers of Satan). Yes.
