The Ablution with the Intention of Removing Ritual Impurity and Its Sufficiency for Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Or, Father, the Shaykh, is the appearance of the receding of the sun between the two ears sufficient for the appearance in the Fajr prayer?
The Shaykh:
No. If a person performs ablution, his ritual impurity is removed. If he performs ablution with the intention of removing ritual impurity, his ritual impurity is removed, and he may pray in that state, whether he performed ablution to recite the Qur'an, to sit in the mosque, or for something else. The important thing is that if he performs ablution with the intention of removing ritual impurity, even if he performed ablution for prayer, his ritual impurity is removed.
