Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an After Eating Something with a Foul Smell
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is it permissible to recite the Qur'an after eating something with a foul smell, or after drinking something that also has a foul smell? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
It is permissible to recite the Qur'an, but it is better for him to make his mouth pleasant from that if it is easy to do so. However, he should not pray in the mosque if he has a foul smell that harms the Muslims; he should pray at home, such as with garlic, leeks, and the like, or like a smoker whose smell remains and harms people. He must repent to Allah for that, abandon it, and be careful not to harm people with it. As for his reciting, there is nothing wrong with him reciting. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
