Forgetting the Gargling and Sniffing in the Full Ritual Bath
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, I often take a full ritual bath without performing the ablution, and I forget the gargling and the sniffing of water into the nose. Sometimes I remember them after I have put on my clothes, so I gargle and sniff water. Sometimes I forget them and do not remember them, and I pray several obligatory prayers with this bath. What is obligatory for me?
The Shaykh:
This is waswas (whispers of Satan); it appears to be waswas. I do not think anyone performs the ablution without sniffing water into the nose or gargling, but it appears to be waswas, so one should leave the waswas.
The presenter:
Please cover up, excuse me.
The Shaykh:
No, focus on this in the future. As for what has passed, it appears to be waswas. Yes.
The presenter:
If he forgets it in the bath, he is required to repeat it.
The Shaykh:
He gets sick, becomes obsessed, and cries. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah forgive you.
