  • Prayer In Place Of Impurity

    Posted by A Hasan on August 1, 2020 at 7:04 pm

    If I am bleeding from my forehead and and place a tissue where I would do sajda and the tissue becomes bloody is my prayer valid . The amount of blood is very small.

    Basic purity is a necessity for any Ibadah (in addition to this, some additional purity is also required for some Ibadah, for example, ablution for prayer); and a bleeding body part prevents you from achieving that basic purity. So in my understanding, one should make that bleeding stop first.

    Btw blood making your tissue completely wet doesn’t seem small.

      Sorry bhai I should’ve been more specific. It was blood from a pimple so you can gauge the amount- it was quite small just a dot.

      Didn’t the sahaba used to pray wounded bleeding? Is there actually any evidence that bleeding invalidated wudu?

      What about menstrual cycles of women?

      As a principle, the flow of blood should stop before one one can achieve that basic Taharat in my understanding.

      I think pimple blood doesn’t flow in any sense, does it? I really don’t know Sweat Smile

      No it doesn’t really 😂. But if there is blood and you clean it- but it comes back and it makes a new dot on the tissue each time- does the tissue and therefore place of prayer become impure?

      Since I am not a jurist, I cannot give any final verdict. But as per my understanding, blood is a kind of impurity that comes even before ablution and things that render ablution ineffective. Therefore, for me, it is a very serious issue to first achieve purity from blood.

      So the wudu is valid but the place of prayer has blood on it. Is it ok?

      Seems ok as per Ghamidi Sahab’s opinion if it relates to the same wound.

      So Ghamidi Sahab is saying that blood does not nullify one’s prayer? Whether it’s flowing or not, dry or fresh? It can be hard to remove blood in some places, such as when it’s dried out and on the head.

      You addressed this here already (Discussion 59830), apologies!

      But still, is there any difference to it being fresh or dry, or flowing or not?

      It if you can please address the bit about when it’s difficult to remove, such as when on the head.

      And is Ghamidi Sahab saying that the presence of blood does not nullify prayer/wudu, or that the exiting of blood from the body does not nullify ablution but that it should still be cleaned off?

      Since the nullifiers of Wuzu have been transmitted through Sunnah (Ijma and Tawatur) and blood (fresh or dried) is not one of them (it applies to both presence and exiting of blood).
