Tahaarat

Q: One is hospitalised and is on drips in a hospital ward. There is no way to make wudhu and perform salaah. What should one do?

Q: Due to a small tiny cut on my left knuckle middle finger I put a plaster on it, I removed the plaster afterwards and washed my hands but realised later after that there was still some residue of the plaster stickiness/glue left so if you rubbed it off it would form like a sticky rubber effect. Because I may have washed impure hands afterwards whilst the stickiness was there and not realising and then wiped them with a towel, I am concerned impurity may have been spread or would be pure as I initially did wash my hands but did not realise the stickiness was still there. I am a waswas sufferer and I am getting better everyday with the help of the almighty therefore I am always very concerned on purity as I always think I am spreading impurity everywhere.

Q: If masah of the neck is not fardh and also not sunnah so why we do that in wudhu?

Q: I would also like to know. If I showered from head to toe with the intention of performing ghusl but I forgot to say the niyyah. Do I need to make ghusl again or can I perform my salaah without redoing my ghusl?

Q: I am suffering from urine incontinence. It is very difficult for me to perform salaah without urine coming out. Do I qualify as a ma'zoor? Please explain to me how a person becomes a ma'zoor.

Q: I really need some advice on the principle of cleanliness. I use to see water sometimes go underneath the toilet seat and then onto the floor of the toilet. However, before I never realised this and carried on wearing sandals from the toilet to the bathroom, and sometimes walked in the toilet barefoot.

1) Does this mean the toilet floor and bathroom floor are najas because of water being transferred? Also, ever since buying a new toilet seat I have seen that this one doesn't allow water to fall from beneath the toilet seat onto the floor but my brother goes in barefoot and walks into the bathroom like that. When I usually clean the toilet seat I see urine underneath, which most likely means the water on the floor was najas all this time. I don't know if my toilet was mopped before or not, but

2) does this mean najas water has been tread on and transferred by foot everywhere. Also, I wash the sandals every time I see them flipped face downwards on the bathroom floor, even though this can be time consuming. I use to suffer from a lot of waswasa many years ago and pray to never go there again. I really need some clarity on this matter because I worry I might over do cleaning things again. I might be overthinking this because my mum also walks into the bathroom barefoot sometimes and even when the floor is wet, which makes me think I might be losing my mind again, but I don't ask her anything about it Incase she thinks I've lost my mind again.

3) If my family walk barefoot on the bathroom floor and then wear a clean pair of sandals I've washed, do I have to wash them again?

4) Furthermore, do I have to wipe the toilet seat with a dry tissue and then with a wet one every time I find the lid open? Does it matter if someone before me didn't wipe the toilet seat dry after finding the toilet lid open? (Sorry for making it very long) I have owned two hoovers so far, and the old one was used in the bathroom when the floor was wet but I didn't know much about cleanliness back then. With the new one, I don't remember if I've used it on the bathroom floor when it was wet, but I am 100% sure that I've used the shorter top end of it to clean the floor when it was wet. Does this mean the whole Hoover is najas; because I don't remember if I touched other parts of it with wetness on my hand.

5) what should I do to clean the Hoover? Do I just wipe the shorter end of it and leave it at that.

Q: I know nail polish prevents ghusal but what if I removed the nail polish but due to cracks in my nails nail polish gets stuck and doesn't come off even with a nail polish remover, will the ghusal be valid? The nail polish wasn't coming off so I thought since it wasn't though I tried hard my ghusal would be valid. Later today when I was washing my hands I found out that nail polish of the size of the needle tip was also left on two of my other nails including this one so I removed those dots. Is my ghusal valid? Then afterwards o cut my nails today and scratched the remaining stuck nail polish from the top of my nails first with a nail-filer then with a knife. I had to scratch off the top layer of my thumb nail in order to remove the nail polish. Do I have to redo my ghusal? I should have done the scratching yesterday after ghusal I know, but then I forgot to and only remembered after seeing it today. What should I do? Will everything have to made pure too?

Q: I have an aunt in Australia who has forwarded the following question: She has psoriasis on her feet which at times results in cuts and a little bleeding. These are bandaged. Is it permissible to make masah on the feet/bandages for wudhu?

Q: If I sleep only 2 or 3 minutes and I have a wet dream in this short nap but I am sure and totally aware that I had no orgasm and also don't feel any sensation at private area but released mazi not mani, so ghusl is fardh?

Q: A guy woke up for Fajr prayer. After the Salaah he went back to sleep. He then wakes up later with a "Wet Dream", it happens to be on Sunday, so he decides to take his bath after washing his clothes. Unfortunately he forgot about the Spiritual Bath and does only the normal usual bath. On Wednesday around 8am he remembers that he didn't perform the Spiritual bath but have been praying for the past 3 days and even led some people in prayers during this period. So now what is the ruling on such a person? Does he have to pay for all the prayers he performed during that period? And what about the prayers of the individuals he led, will Allah accept their prayers? What if he had intended to offer the spiritual bath but forgot. Can the bath becomes his ghusal for jannabah?
