Placing cotton in the ear during ghusl and wiping the ears
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Water entering my ear causes me harm, so I place cotton in it during ghusl. Is my action permissible, or is it obligatory to wash my ear and is wiping not sufficient?
The Shaykh:
No, for the ear, wiping the outside and inside is sufficient in wudu and in ghusl as well. Its obligation is wiping. Wiping the head, and from that, what? Hmm?
The questioner:
Oh Allah.
The Shaykh:
The two ears; you wipe the two ears, the inside of the ear and the outside. Passing the finger, wet with water, into its canal and over its rim. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Mm. In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. No. Allah. There is no god but Allah, may Allah send prayers upon and. We seek forgiveness from Allah.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
