Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah bless you, the aspect of indication regarding the obligation of istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) from the evidence has not become clear to me.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : These evidences, Shaykh, are either a report of an action or a clarification that this validates or does not validate, but what is the command that obligates istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself)?
The Shaykh : Yes, what was reported? Yes, I say: Was this reported? How? Is it not the case that the one who does not perform istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) from urine is punished in his grave?
The questioner : He does not ensure complete cleanliness.
The Shaykh : That is, he does not ensure complete cleanliness, meaning he must ensure complete cleanliness. No, the evidence from this is clear.
The questioner : If what came out is...?
The Shaykh : Huh?
The questioner : If what came out is dry, do we say that it is not obligatory?
The Shaykh : No, istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) and istijmar (cleaning with stones) are not obligatory.
The questioner : Is it said to be a derived cause?
The Shaykh : No, it is not needed. No, originally, istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) is the removal of impurity. The wording, meaning, is taken from the wording. It is not a derived cause.
The questioner : Do we say it becomes pure by sense, not by Shari'ah?
The Shaykh : What is it?
The questioner : The place requires wiping three times.
The Shaykh : And what is permitted on what? There is nothing. But in any case, this is rare, meaning it is rare for a person to be dry to this extent, but it may happen.
The Shaykh : Yes.
