The ruling on combining istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) and istijmar
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
From one who follows my path. Yes.
The Shaykh:
From one who returns from a journey. Yes.
The questioner:
Did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) combine istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) and istijmar?
The Shaykh:
This is the best.
The questioner:
But is it established that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did this? Combining them?
The Shaykh:
He would relieve himself, then Anas would come with him, and he would perform ghusl (the full ritual bath) and perform istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself). We are going to translate. Let him sit, he does not touch the wall or... Anas was present. May Allah reward you for the word regarding the istijmar. The istijmar, but before he would perform istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself), he would perform istijmar at the place where he relieved himself. When he relieved himself, he performed istijmar, then he came to perform istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) with water. It tells you to wipe the body with washing. It is better, not better; the obligatory is to run water and wipe, yes.
