Tayammum for Major Ritual Impurity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 8592 )
Q3: I have been suffering from angina pectoris and internal bleeding since childhood: A - Do I have any reward with Allah for this, since I have been deprived of my youth and health? B - On most days I pray with tayammum because I am unable to take a bath, is that permissible for me? C - Can I teach students the Qur'an while I am in a state of ritual impurity?
A3: Praise be to Allah alone, and blessings and peace be upon His Messenger, his family, and his Companions.. After that: First: If you are patient with what has befallen you, you will have reward with Allah, but if you despair and do not have patience, you will be deprived of the reward. Second: If the situation is as you described, that you are unable to take a bath, then tayammum is prescribed for you for major ritual impurity. Third: If you are unable to use water for purification from minor ritual impurity, tayammum suffices for you for purification from minor ritual impurity to touch the mushaf, and for
teaching the Qur'an, even if you are in a state of minor ritual impurity. As for one in a state of major ritual impurity, he must not touch the mushaf, nor read the Qur'an, nor teach it to students until he performs the full ritual bath. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
