The ruling on taking new water for the ears in wudu'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In some fiqh books, Your Eminence the Shaykh, it is stated that it is recommended to take new water for the ears.
Answer:
This is an error. It is a weak opinion, held by some of the Hanbalis and others, and it is weak. In fact, it is obligatory. In fact, the sunnah (recommended practice) is to wipe the ears with the water from the head, and it is not prescribed to take new water for the ears. This is the best. If he wipes his head and ears with one water, some scholars said to take new water for the ears, and they reported this from Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), but the best is to leave that. The best is to wipe his ears with the water from his head.
