The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, does a believer who is in a state of major ritual impurity retain his water? He names it while he is in a state of ritual impurity?
The Shaykh:
Yes, that is correct. He may remember Allah, name Him, seek forgiveness, and glorify Him; all of that is supplication to Allah. The only exception is reciting the Qur'an; reciting the Qur'an is what is forbidden. Yes. As for the other forms of dhikr, such as tasbih, tahlil, takbir, and naming Allah when entering the place of relief, when performing wudu, and when in need, there is no harm in any of that. Yes.

The questioner:
A city.

رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَاThe questioner:
