The Ruling on Interlacing the Fingers in Ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What are its errors? It was permissible to trace the hadiths regarding the errors, and it was mentioned in the command regarding something significant, and he said:
Answer:
Because it was not mentioned in the authentic hadiths that described the ablution of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and it was not mentioned in the verse regarding the closing salam, and because it is a completion, from the completions? Or it is recommended and not obligatory. The obligatory part is for the water to reach what is between the fingers; this is necessary. As for interlacing the fingers, this is merely a supplementary matter, like the dalf (a type of drum). If it is done, it is better, and if it is not done, it is not obligatory.
