Continuation of the explanation of the author's statement: "If he wears it after complete ritual purity."
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Now, he says "If he wears it after complete ritual purity". Now, even regarding the cast, even regarding the cast, if a person breaks a bone and goes, for example, to the hospital to have it set, we say: do not have it set; he must go and perform wudu first. And if he is in a state of major ritual impurity, he must perform ghusl first. People, the leg is now separated from the other, yes, you nod like this. He said: they must let him bathe and then come back. However, the condition of complete ritual purity for the cast is a very weak opinion. First, because wiping over it is a default ruling and a dire necessity. Second, it comes suddenly; it is not like the leather sock, which you can wear whenever you wish. This is the choice of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah and a group of strong scholars, and many jurists have chosen it: that it is not required for the cast to be worn while in a state of purity. Accordingly, this is one of the differences between the cast and the leather sock. If you wish, we can list the differences between the cast and the leather sock so that we can count them, because knowing the differences, classifications, and rules is important for a student of knowledge. For example, we say: the cast is not limited to a specific limb, whereas the leather sock is limited to a specific limb, which is the leg; the turban and the head covering are for the head, unlike the cast. It is clear. And by this, we know the error of some muftis who issued a ruling that it is permissible for a woman to wear nail polish for a day and a night. "Manakir" is the plural of "mankar." No, no, yes, correct.
The questioner : The form of the extreme plural, or "mankar."
The Shaykh : Yes, the form of the extreme plural is "manakir."
The questioner : The plural of "mankar," O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : No, because "manakir" is only used when the singular is a five-letter word ending with a letter of ease, like "asfar" (bird) and "asafir" (birds). Yes, "miftah" (key) and "mafati" (keys). We say "mankar," leave it as "mankar." "Mankar" is the singular and "manakir" is the plural. Yes, well, in any case, we say this is incorrect because wiping was only reported regarding what is worn on the head and the leg only. For this reason, when the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was in the Battle of Tabuk, he had a Syrian cloak on. He wanted to shorten the sleeves because they were tight, so he could perform wudu. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) could not do it, so he pulled his hand out like this and brought it out from underneath until al-Mughirah poured water over it. If wiping had been permissible in such a situation on something other than the head and the leg, he would have wiped over this sleeve and walked on. Now, this is a difference. The second difference: wiping over the cast is permissible in both states of impurity, whereas for the other three, it is only permissible in the state of minor ritual impurity. The third difference: wiping over the three is time-limited, whereas for the cast, it is not time-limited. The fourth difference: the three must be worn while in a state of purity; they must be worn while in a state of purity, despite the disagreement among scholars regarding the turban and the head covering. And for this one, purity is not required. The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said.
The questioner : We started by listing the differences between ... ?
The Shaykh : We listed, I think, four differences. Yes. Who can give us one of them, Adel?
The questioner : The locations, O Shaykh. We defined their locations. We said, meaning, their locations.
The questioner : The form of the extreme plural, or "mankar."
The Shaykh : Yes, the form of the extreme plural is "manakir."
The questioner : The plural of "mankar," O Shaykh.
