Unsure
as to whether I had passed wind whilst performing tawaaf
*Please appropriately reference this
fatwa to: www.fatwa-online.com, thankyou!*
Question: In Makkah
al-Mukarramah, whilst performing the tawaaf
al-wadaa' and after I had made five circuits around the
Ka'bah
I felt some movement in my backside, so Iblees began whispering
to me that I had passed wind but I did not adhere to his whispering
because I did not feel that I had passed any wind from my
anus, and I had completely lost the sense of smell, so I sought
refuge in Allaah and put my faith in Allaah and continued
performing the tawaaf
and then (upon completion) performed the two rak'ah's
(of prayer). So is there anything in this or is there anything
upon me?
Response:
The basic rule is that you remain in the state of purification,
as the occurrence of doubt as to whether you passed wind does
not nullify your state of purification (until you are absolutely
sure), so your tawaaf
and your prayer afterwards is correct/sound, (inshaa.-Allaah).
And
with Allaah lies all success and may Allaah send prayers and
salutations upon our Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
