The Shari'ah limit for wudu' and gargling
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I am a man who suffers from excessive doubt (waswas) regarding wudu', especially during the mouth rinse, nasal inhalation, and washing of the face. What is the Shari'ah limit for these body parts that I should reach?
The Shaykh:
The one who.
The questioner:
What is the limit I should reach to cut off the waswas, and is gargling obligatory in the mouth rinse?
The Shaykh:
The Shari'ah limit is the action of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). He performed wudu' while people were watching him, and they narrated the description of his wudu'. So you should review the authentic hadiths and act according to them. Wudu' means washing the face, rinsing the mouth, inhaling water into the nose, and washing the face, hands, and feet three times each. This is the most complete form. Do not add a fourth time, for a fourth time is a religious innovation (bid'ah). The minimum sufficient amount is once: you pour water over the body part and wash the entire part so that nothing remains unwashed; once is sufficient. As for the recommended practice (sunnah), it is three times. Yes.
