Kohl and Its Effect on Ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
She says about herself: I use liquid kohl. Liquid kohl is a black line that we can remove, and it becomes in the form of a strip, and some of it accumulates. Is the ablution valid with the use of this kohl?
Answer: If the kohl has a substance or body that prevents water from reaching the skin, it must be removed, and it is not permissible for it to remain during ablution or the full ritual bath. However, if it is merely blackness, merely a color, that does not prevent anything, like the color of henna or the like, then there is no harm. But if it has a substance or body that accumulates and prevents water, this prevents [the water] and must be removed during ablution and the full ritual bath. Likewise, henna, if it has a body, must be removed. But if it is merely a color and has no body, it does not prevent [the water].
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
