Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What remains on the hands of the smell after istinja', and there is no soap, so do I perform wudu' and pray, or not? What remains on the hands of the smell after istinja', and there is no soap, so do I perform wudu' and pray while the smell is present, or is it necessary to remove it from the hands?
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he performed istinja' after intercourse, if he washed his private parts, when he finished washing his private parts, he would strike his hands on the ground, on the earth, to remove the smell. Remove the smell with a handkerchief or something that does not contradict. Yes.
