Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is a woman of the Book compelled to perform the full ritual bath from major ritual impurity?
If her husband requests it from her, she is compelled according to the correct opinion. Even if this does not benefit her, because she will not pray, it benefits her husband regarding intercourse with her. So, if he compels her to perform the full ritual bath, it is obligatory for her to perform it.And some of the scholars of knowledge said: She is not compelled, but the stronger position is that she is compelled for the right of the husband.
