Does a person prostrate in gratitude if he passes something after difficulty, such as constipation?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : For example, if a person urinates or defecates, is that a blessing from Allah that this urine and feces came out? Or is it not? Does he prostrate in gratitude?
The Shaykh : He does not prostrate, but if his urine or feces were retained and he found hardship in that, and then Allah let it out
The questioner : Does he prostrate or not?
The Shaykh : He prostrates. Why? Because this is beyond the norm; a blessing has appeared or a calamity has been averted. Yes.
