Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah forgive you and your parents, O honorable Shaykh!

The Shaykh : And to whoever said it and whoever heard it.

The questioner : Is it obligatory to move the ring and the watch during wudu'?

The Shaykh : Yes, the jurists said: it is a recommended practice (sunnah) to move it, but if it is tight, it is necessary to move it, because if he does not move it, the water will not reach what is underneath it. And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:
wash your faces and your forearms اغسلوا وجوهكم وأيديكم
[Al-Ma'idah 5:6]
, so it is necessary to wash the entire hand from the tips of the fingers to the elbow.
