The ruling on applying ointment to the skin in wudu and ghusl
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh’s issue must depart from the natural.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
They turn to. And I picture what a great people.
The Shaykh:
Yes, applying Vaseline or cream or oil does not harm; what harms is an ointment that harms and prevents water from reaching the skin. It runs over the skin and does not prevent it, because it has no substance, no solid substance that blocks the water. Yes.
