Abu Taymiyyah – Part 14 Make Sure You Dont Leave This

And then he says, wakadalikat

takhleel al Ashabiyah.

Also, the Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam used to

do takhleel al Ashabiyah. He used to do

this.

So when you watch your hands to do

that, it's the sunnah of the messian sallallahu

alaihi wa sallam. But in one case, it

becomes mandatory.

K. When does it become mandatory?

If you can't get the

water in between your fingers or your toes.

Doing takleel,

you can also do it in between your

toes. This is also the sunnah, not just

your hands, but you can also put it

between your toes.

It becomes mandatory.

Let's just say, for example, you have chubby

toes

and, and the flesh is preventing

the water reaching in between your toes. In

that case, it becomes a must.

A

principle that we learn in our Sur Al

Fiqh is

If you can't fulfill

an act that is mandatory

except by doing something,

then that something becomes wajib as well.

That something becomes wajib as well. Let me

give you guys an easier example.

Go into the Masjid, it's an obligation, right?

Messenger SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam commanded a blind man

to

answer the call of prayer.

Is it possible for me to go to

the Masjid

without walking there?

I can't.

So getting to the Masjid,

would become wajib,

because I can't fulfill the obligation of praying

in the Masjid except by

walking there, or by taking a car. Even

though in within itself walking to the Masjid

or taking a car to the Masjid is

not something that is mandatory. But I can't

fulfill the

obligation

of praying in the masjid except by

walking there. So that becomes mandatory as well.

So we know my brothers and my sisters,

that washing the feet is an obligation.

And we have to make sure

that

every part of that

foot, or whatever else that we have been

told to wash,

is fully washed, and then the wound that

flows on that part of the body.

Even my brothers and my sisters, there is

the size of a nail

on your foot that hasn't been washed, that

will render

the washing of the feet to be what?

Invalid.

And if you continue like that, and you

finish your udhu,

your udhu becomes invalid. And if you pray

like that, that will render your udhu being

invalid as well. Sorry, your salah being invalid

as well. You would have to go and

redo everything again.

I hope that it's clear my brothers and

my sisters.

Okay.

We have the Hadith of Anas Malik

narrated

by Abu Dawood. Masjid Salahi wa sami Suaman.

Okay?

And on his feet

was the size of a nail that wasn't

washed.

Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam told him

to go back and do his wudu again

properly.

In another narration, we are told,

That on his feet

was the size of a coin

that wasn't washed.

For Amr An Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, He

commanded him to repeat his wudu and likewise

salah.

Yes, my brothers and my sisters.

Even if it is a little bit,

you would have to make sure that the

water reaches every part.

So going back to what I was saying

earlier.

If one has chubby feet and the only

way that he's going to get the water

in between his toes by using his fingers,

then him doing that becomes mandatory as well.

Even though idwin in itself, if the water

can reach it, you doing this in between

your toes, it's not something that

is

mandatory.
