Ruling on performing the ritual bath to remove major ritual impurity in an abandoned house containing Islamic books
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
This message is from the Iraqi Republic, in the Tameem area. The sender, the student Salih 'Uwad Khalaf, says: I read the Noble Qur'an, and I have a house where I sit to read the Noble Qur'an and pray. Sometimes I am in a state of major ritual impurity. Is it permissible for me to perform the ritual bath in this house? The house is abandoned and contains religious books. I am sixteen years old or older. I ask for your guidance, may Allah guide you?
The presenter: Repeat.
The presenter: He says: He sits in an unoccupied house, and there are religious books in it. Also, sometimes he is in a state of major ritual impurity, and he performs the ritual bath in this house, which contains the religious books. Is that permissible or not?
Answer: There is no blame on him for that, and there is nothing wrong with it. He may perform the ritual bath if there is water and it is easy for him to perform the bath there. This is because making the place available for readers and researchers is a form of permission to use the water for ablution, the ritual bath, and drinking. Since it was left for readers and researchers regarding these books, the meaning is that they perform ablution from this water and perform the ritual bath from it, and there is no blame on them for that. Yes.
