The Ruling on Omitting Gargling and Sniffing Water in Ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
There is no god but Allah.
The questioner:
We say that the obligation of rinsing the nose is to do so gently, and whoever leaves this rinsing…
The Shaykh:
As for the one who holds that gargling and rinsing the nose are part of the face washing, yes, they are part of the ablution, and whoever leaves them must repeat the ablution. As for the one who holds that they are among the recommended acts, he does not hold that the ablution must be repeated if gargling and rinsing the nose are left out. However, the stronger position, based on the apparent evidence, is the first one. Yes.
