There is water sufficient only to wash one leg, and I want to take a ghusl for Jumu'ah, while my companion wants to take a ghusl from janabah. Who takes precedence?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Water was found that is sufficient only to wash one leg.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : I wanted to take a ghusl for Jumu'ah, and I have a friend with me who wants to take a ghusl from janabah or an obligatory ghusl. Do I give him precedence?
The Shaykh : Whose is the water? Yours?
The questioner : It is not mine and not his; it is between us.
The Shaykh : Between you? Draw lots for it. And if you give him precedence, that is better, because his ghusl is obligatory due to a state of ritual impurity, so he has more right to it than you.
The Shaykh : Yes.
