Does the ablution become invalid when the time for wiping over the socks ends?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O Shaykh. Does the ablution become invalid when the time for wiping over the socks ends?
The Shaykh : Yes, the correct view is that it does not become invalid when the time for wiping over the socks ends. For example, if the time for wiping ends at twelve noon, and you remain in a state of purity until night, you are still in a state of purity. This is because there is no evidence that the ablution becomes invalid when the time for wiping ends. The end of the time for wiping only ends the wiping itself, not the purity. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) only set a time limit for the wiping, not for the purity. This is a principle that a student of knowledge should be aware of: what is established by a legal proof is not lifted except by a legal proof, because the original state is that what was is as it was. Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The questioner : There is a man who is the mu'adhdhin in one of the mosques, and he has adult children who are accountable. They come to the prayer late, after it has ended and the imam has said the closing salam, and this happens most of the time. So the imam discussed this matter with the mu'adhdhin, and the mu'adhdhin said that they have the reward of the congregation even if they do not catch the first congregation and pray with the second congregation. The important thing is that they come to pray in the mosque, meaning that they do not miss the twenty-seven degrees. And this man is blind.
The Shaykh : The mu'adhdhin or the imam?
The questioner : No, the mu'adhdhin. So the imam tried to convince this mu'adhdhin that he must order them to pray in congregation, because as a mu'adhdhin, you are a role model. Since the imam saw that most of the worshippers are late for the prayer on the excuse that they saw the mu'adhdhin's children being late, and they are grown men, he did not find a result. So should the imam show some harshness, either to the father or to the children, or should he take them in a way that you think is appropriate? May Allah reward you with good.
