Question:
Or, Father, is it sufficient to retreat with it for the one who is near the obligatory prayer?
Answer:
Yes. If a person performs wudu', his state of ritual impurity is lifted. If he performs wudu' with the intention of lifting the state of ritual impurity, his state of ritual impurity is lifted and he may pray with it, whether he performed wudu' to read the Qur'an or to sit in the mosque or for something else. The important thing is that if he performs wudu' with the intention of lifting the state of ritual impurity, if he performs wudu' until he sees it, and the prayer, he performs wudu' with the intention of lifting the state of ritual impurity, meaning that his state of ritual impurity is lifted? Yes.
