Not Paying Attention to Whispers During Ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Also, we received this message from the listener (S. A.) from Taif. He says in his message: When I want to perform ablution for prayer, it seems to me that a smell will come out of me through the two passages. What is the solution for this? And we thank you greatly.
Answer: This is from Satan. The solution for this is to turn away from this matter and not pay attention to it, for it is one of the whispers. He should perform the Shari'ah ablution, which is the wiping, starting with rinsing the mouth and sniffing water into the nose, and that is sufficient. He should not pay attention to what he thinks came out of his rear passage in the form of wind after he has started the ablution. Rather, he should continue with his ablution and not pay attention to these whispers until he is certain, like the sun, that something has come out of him. If he is certain and sure that something has come out of him, he repeats the ablution, meaning he repeats the wiping, which is washing the face and hands, wiping the head, and washing the feet. This is called the Shari'ah ablution. As for washing the rear and front passages, it is called istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself). We should be aware of the difference, as some of the common people may be confused by this. So, washing the rear and front passages is called istinja' from excrement and urine, and if it is done with stones, it is called istijmar. As for the Shari'ah ablution, it means washing the face with rinsing the mouth and sniffing water into the nose, washing the hands with the elbows, wiping the head with the ears, and washing the feet. This is called the Shari'ah ablution, and some people call it the wiping. Yes...
