    Posted by Zainab on August 3, 2026 at 4:18 am

    If one applied nail glue on nails (Elfi) to put on fake nails …And after that they buffed out the Elfi but it was so stubborn that it was not buffed (removed ) completely..

    The person tried their level best, to the extent that the nails started hurting,to make sure that it’s removed..but still it didn’t remove completely..

    But still managed to remove the Elfi to the extent that now if seen with eyes it was almost a surety that no glue is left on the nail but still there is a doubt.

    The person took ritual bath after that after making sure nothing is left..maybe there might be some left on the nail but the person ignored it cz the nails started hurting due to extreme buffing..

    So in that case is the ghussal valid..

    Because our Deen offers Peace and not to burden ourselves..

    The insignificant things are ignored in our Deen. If there is nothing noticeable, you do not need to bother yourself.

    Sir wanted to ask one more question about ritual bath (gusal)Main purpose of bath is to purify oneself from impurity .And it’s done by firstly cleaning the impurity and then a a through out shower (draining water on whole body)

    My question was that

    “is it obligatory to rinse mouth and nose during gusal Or it’s not necessary if not done”

    It is not obligatory.

    Keep in mind another point. If something is stuck to your body and is not removable or hard to remove, then you do not need to put much effort into removing it. You may wash your hands, etc.; it is now part of your body.

    Okay sir I understood

    Thanku for explaining

    Sorry to bother you sir but I forget to ask one more detail

    If a person tried their best to remove all the noticeable barriers like nail polish or Elfi..and took complete gusal

    But still after all the attempts if a person still forget something like they forget to remove mascara from the eyelashes that maybe water resistant and they realized it after months that during that one time they forget to remove the following things

    Is their gusal still valid cz they genuinely forget to remove the detail

    And they thought all along till the realization that they made complete gussal in order to clean themselves

    Forgetfulness is excused. If you realize only after the prayer time has ended that your ghusal or wudu was invalid, you are not required to do anything.

    Similarly, if, after performing ghusl, you discover that a part of the body was not washed properly, you only need to wash that particular part.

    If the person didn’t realized it after the time of prayer…They realized it after a whole week…

    And they were praying all along and were not aware that they genuinely forgot something and they were thinking that they made a valid gusal.

    A person genuinely did his best to make himself/herself achieve complete purity by taking ritual bath

    If in doing so ,they forgot something or skipped something out of genuine mistake then they don’t need to redo the whole thing and doubt their previous prayers?

    So according to my understanding if something is forgotten and realized after the act of worship is finished..then they are excused ?

    Because what Allah sees is intention behind the specific act done the humans and they will be judged by their intentions

    If a person did intend to purify himself and took a ritual bath and the purpose is to clean himself then he has achieved purity and he should not doubt it afterwards and he will be rewarded for putting efforts to purify himself

    Am I right?

    Yes, they are excused, and the act will be rewarded.
