Standing on Some Violations of Those Seeking Purity

Abstract

This research aims to highlight some errors related to purification, such as ablution, ritual bathing (ghusl), wiping over socks, and other issues encountered by those performing purification. It is well-known that the validity of purification precedes the validity of certain acts of worship, such as prayer—which is a pillar of Islam and is not accepted by Allah without purification—and the act of circumambulation (Tawaf). The study has identified around twenty common mistakes, some occurring before or during ablution, others during ghusl, and additional errors related to purification. The researcher has strived to pinpoint the most recurring mistakes and clarify the correct practices to ensure these acts of worship are performed in a manner acceptable in Islamic law.
