Why The Passing Of Wind Breaks Wuzu?
This is a very interesting conversation. Id like to join in: I see both of yours’ points. And i have some questions: 1. As you have said that in 4:23 Allah mentioned the whole law including the well known practices, so then why in 4:43 while mentioning whole law (as u have said) it is not mentioned that wudu is invalidated by farting? If farting was a well known practice back then, why not is it mentioned? Naturally people fart alot so inorder to pray they must have made wudu and while making wudu they must have kept in mind that farting invalidates it. So by your logic, it must mean that farting wasnt a well known practice. And if it was a well known practice then, how come in the whole law mentioned in quran it isnt mentioned? i disagree that these details of differences among sects are minor. That aside, keeping in mind the purpose of wudu, which is to remove impurity. Question arises about the wholeness of the law that why it is not mentioned in the quranic verse ? 2. As u mentioned that it is an act of impurity by category of defecation then, to my understanding it must mean that the small fecal practicals released alongside the gases (hydrogen, sulphide, ammonia) are the cause of impurity. This makes complete sense to me. And leads to another question: if this is the case, then wouldnt it be necessary to wash the private parts from where we fart to remove any fecal practicals left on the surface of the skin ?
