Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Does washing the feet mean without using the hand and without interlacing the fingers?
The Shaykh : Without what?
The questioner : Without using the hand and without interlacing the fingers, is it sufficient?
The Shaykh : Yes, it is sufficient. However, we have previously mentioned, Fawzi, that interlacing the fingers is a recommended practice (sunnah), and it is more emphasized for the feet. As for sufficiency, it is sufficient as long as one knows with certainty or strong probability that the water reached the spaces between the fingers.
