  1. [60secFIQH] Wudhu' : The least you gotta do

    .


    Wudhu' is one of major forms of attaining taharah. So lets get the basis covered, and then we move towards some other details.

    Wudhu has 4 Fardh (obligatory acts).

    Punch Line : This means, as long as these four acts are done, the taharah of wudhu is attained.

    These are:

    1. Wash Face
    2. Wash hands up till and including elbows
    3. Making masah of 25% of the head.
    4. Wash feet including ankles ...
  2. [60secFIQH] Istinja' : Part III

    continued from here.
    Having understood that the size of hollow of the palm for the amount of najasah is not derived from thin air, rather from the salaf, it is equally important to understand why such small quantity of najasah is overlooked, so much so that even salah is valid with it.

    Essentially, much of this ruling has to do with haraj (inconvenience). Relieving oneself is a daily occurance, and to task it with absolute clarity would make a high degree of inconvenience to masses. ...

  5. Wise Crack or an Old Nut

    .
    It is rumoured in the legends of unheard fables that every moment adds a streak of wisdom to one's life. We always consider the old to have acquired the wisdom of time. "Maine yeh baal dhoop main safed naheen kiyay", goes an urdu saying. It mentions an old chap iterating the ideology that age old experience is the cause of white hairs, and not merely sun-bathing.
