Purifying the soles of the sandals by wiping them with asphalt or cement
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it sufficient to purify the soles of the sandals by wiping them with what is called asphalt or cement, or is it necessary to use earth?
Answer:
The earth mentioned in the text is earth. So wiping them with stone, cement, or tar is not sufficient. This earth is sufficient because earth has a special property; that is why it is used for dry ablution (tayammum) in place of water, and it is also used to wash away the saliva of a dog if it falls into a vessel. Earth has a special property, and nothing else can take its place. Yes.
