Tahaarat

Q: After brushing my teeth with a Miswaak, my gums bleed. How or until when, do I have to complete my wudhu thereafter?

Q: When I become sexually excited, a fluid seeps out of my private part. There is a tingling sensation and itchiness in my private part when it seeps out, but clearly there is no sexual pleasure or orgasm when it seeps out because I have experienced an orgasm before. I am always in doubt since it is difficult to differentiate female ejaculate from other fluids which are discharged from a women's private part unlike men. Since it affects our daily prayers, so do I still need to perform ghusal? I follow the hanafi madhab.

Q: My job requires me to travel a lot. I sometimes stay in an apartment with a communal kitchen. The dishes are thus also used by non-muslim guests. After guests use the dishes, they are cleaned by the staff of the lodge. Now when I use these dishes, do I have to rinse it seven times to make it clean, if there are no apparent signs of impurities on them?

Q: My problem is that when I intend to pray a lot of gas starts to build up in my bowels. I make wudhu with difficulty by stopping it and pray in the same way. This problem always occurs whenever I decide to pray. At other times, I have gas problems comparable to a normal person. Following is an account of hardships that I have been facing because of it.

Q: If clean clothes are put out to dry, do they remain paak if it rains and they become soaked or do they need to be re-washed? Similarly, the container the clothes are placed in after they are dry was outside and also became soaked as did the washing line. Do these items remain paak or do they need to be re-washed?

Q: When one's husband has masturbated his wife's clitoris only (without any contact on the vaginal area), must she perform the ghusal?

Q: A lady is old and wears a napkin. It is difficult for her to walk and needs to have assistance. If her napkin becomes wet often, does she need to go to the toilet as well as change that napkin every time? It is very difficult for her. She cannot do any of these things by herself and needs for it to be done for her.

Q: When I was making wudhu, my pants got wet in the basin. I have no knowledge of najasat in it, so I read namaaz with it. Is it pure?

Q: I could not remember if I washed after I went to the toilet when passing urine. What should be done in such a situation? If anything other than ignore it. What happens to my Salaah because I ignored it now and maybe before too?

Q: Must a mustahaza change her pad before each Salaah?
