Treatment of Obsessive Compulsions in Ritual Purity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh said: If a person is in a state of ritual impurity and he passes gas, or if he is in a state of major ritual impurity and he passes gas after intercourse, and he eats, and he does such and such, and he uses this amount of water, and he proceeds to the Friday prayer or to the congregational prayer.
The Shaykh:
This is waswas (whispers of Satan). Waswas does no harm. When a person performs wudu (ablution), he is in a state of purity, and he should not look at waswas or doubts. He prays, and he performs tayammum (dry ablution) with the people, and praise be to Allah, and he leaves the waswas.
