The invalidation of wudu' by touching, not by being touched

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, regarding the one who is touched.

The Shaykh:
The one who is touched does not have his wudu' invalidated; there is no requirement on the one who is touched for his wudu' to be invalidated. It is only the one who touches who has his wudu' invalidated.

The questioner:
And if our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a discharge from his private part, would this be a lot of wudu'?

The Shaykh:
No, until something comes out of him, because he did not touch his private part, so the hadith does not apply to him. But if he did touch his private part, we consider it equivalent to touching, and he did touch his private part. Yes. No, the suspicion takes the place of reality if something is done that is not done, if he did not sleep and he did not touch, and he was not forced, he has no reason to be prevented, he has no reason from the reasons. The suspicion takes the place of reality with the doing of a cause, with the doing of a cause that created this suspicion, yes. The cause is from the other, and therefore we obligated the other with the content.
