Completing the Ablution in Difficulties and Its Virtue
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The causes of the state of ritual impurity. Less than the causes of the state of ritual impurity.
The Shaykh:
No, it is completing the ablution in difficulties. That is, in hardships, that is, in the cold. If a person performs ablution in the cold, there is no doubt that ablution in the cold is a hardship for souls, so there is an increase in reward for the hardship. Unlike one who performs ablution in a warm place with heating; that is easier. But if he performs ablution in a cold place because he has no heating and cannot heat it, or in a cold place where he has no house and shelter, and despite this he completes his obedience to Allah and His Messenger, he has an increase in reward. So completing the ablution in this state is better than completing it in a state of warmth, even though both contain great good.
The questioner:
They reject it from me.
The Shaykh:
On the beds because of the cold, meaning. Yes.
The presenter:
Allah. There is no god but Allah. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah. I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. May Allah will that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. I direct you to prayer. I direct you to prayer. I direct you to water. I direct you to water. Allah is the Greatest. Allah is the Greatest. There is no god but Allah.
The Shaykh:
There is no god but Allah. Yes.
