It is stated in *Fiqh al-Sunnah* that spitting without causing annoyance is a form of extravagance, so one should not do it; if one does it, there is nothing upon him. What is your opinion on this?

Eid Abbasi : He says: It is stated in *Fiqh al-Sunnah* that spitting without causing annoyance is a form of extravagance, so one should not do it; if one does it, there is nothing upon him?
It appears he is asking about the opinion regarding this statement.
The Shaykh : The matter is easy. As long as it says there is nothing upon him, then there is nothing upon him.
Yes.
Eid Abbasi : In the city, one does not cut down its thorns, nor...?
The Shaykh : This applies to some people, not all of them. That is, the people of cities who are accustomed to living in cleanliness and changing their undergarments every two or three days at least. They are told what is told to one who lives, for example, in the desert or the wilderness and is not accustomed to such cleanliness. It is said to those that it is a form of extravagance, with some degree of strictness. So, as long as the matter is permitted, the matter is concluded.
