The questioner : He also says in his treatise: If it is permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to remember Allah while in that state, and if some of the noble verses are included among certain supplications and remembrances, such as "Hasbi Allah wa ni'm al-wakil" (Allah is sufficient for me and He is the best Disposer of affairs), "Afawwid amri ila Allah" (I entrust my affair to Allah), "Inna Allahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un" (Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we return), and other such noble verses, is it permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to recite them during remembrance or supplication? And is it permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to say "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim" (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful)?
The Shaykh : Yes, it is permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to remember Allah the Exalted with what corresponds to the Qur'an, such as the verses mentioned by the questioner: "Inna Allahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un" (Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we return), "Afawwid amri ila Allah" (I entrust my affair to Allah), "Alhamdulillah Rabb al-'alamin" (Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds), "A'udhu bi Allah min al-Shaytan al-rajim" (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed), and "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim" (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful). All of these are permissible without blame if one does not intend to recite them as Qur'anic recitation. As for "A'udhu bi Allah min al-Shaytan al-rajim" (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed), this is because Allah the Exalted says:[An-Nahl 16:98].
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes, it is permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to remember Allah the Exalted with what corresponds to the Qur'an, such as the verses mentioned by the questioner: "Inna Allahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un" (Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we return), "Afawwid amri ila Allah" (I entrust my affair to Allah), "Alhamdulillah Rabb al-'alamin" (Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds), "A'udhu bi Allah min al-Shaytan al-rajim" (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed), and "Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim" (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful). All of these are permissible without blame if one does not intend to recite them as Qur'anic recitation. As for "A'udhu bi Allah min al-Shaytan al-rajim" (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed), this is because Allah the Exalted says:
So when you recite the Qur'an, [first] seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the expelled [from His mercy].
فَإِذَا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِThe questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
