Does Passing Gas Break Wudu?
Hi all readers! Are you looking for an explanation of “does passing gas break wudu?”? If your answer is “Yes”, congratulations! Now you are reading the right article. Why? Because that is what I will explain in this article. As Muslims, we must understand that. That's why I wrote this article. So, you should read it to the end!
Specifically, there are five important things about “does passing gas break wudu?” which I will explain in this article. The five important things I mean are as follows:
Why Is Explanation of Passing Gas Important in Islam?
The first important thing about “does passing gas break wudu?” What I will explain now is "why is explanation of passing gas important in Islam?". I want you to understand that first before you read more explanations in this article so that you understand the urgency of our discussion now.
One thing you should understand is that the reason why the explanation of passing gas is important in Islam is because passing gas is one of the things that can break wudu. If a Muslim's wudu has been broken, then he is not allowed to perform some rituals in Islam that require them to be in a holy condition such as prayer.
Maybe now you are wondering, "Why can't a Muslim who does not have wudu or whose wudu is broken can't pray?" The answer is that because a Muslim who is not in a holy condition or does not have wudu, then he has a small hadas (الحَدَثُ). Hadas that I mean is small hadas (الحَدَثُ الأَصْغَرُ). Hadas is the basic thing that break wudu.
For example, we can find an explanation that a Muslim who has a small hadas (الحَدَثُ الأَصْغَرُ) or does not have wudu or his wudu is broken cannot perform prayer in the hadith below:
عَنْ أَبِيْ هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : لَا يَقْبَلُ اللهُ صَلَاةَ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا أَحْدَثَ حَتَّى يَتَوَضَّأَ . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ
From Abu Hurairah radiyallahu anhu, that the Messenger of Allah (Prophet Muhammad) sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, "Allah does not accept someone's prayer from you if he has hadas (small hadas: الحَدَثُ الأَصْغَرُ) until he performs wudu." This hadith was narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
In the above hadith it is explained that Allah will not accept the prayer of a Muslim who has hadas until he performs wudu. What this means is that one of the conditions for a Muslim's prayer to be valid is that he is pure. Wudu is one of the ways to purify the body in Islam. Wudu is one way to get rid of hadas.
But sometimes there is a Muslim who when he is praying, he doubts whether he has passing gas or not. If you are experiencing such a condition, then you have to make sure that you have passing gas or not. you have to make sure of that.
So, if you ask me, "why is explanation of passing gas important in Islam?", the answer is so that someone can understand that passing gas is one of the things that destroys wudu, that if a Muslim's wudu has been breaked, then he should not do prayers.
That's a brief explanation of "why is explanation of passing gas important in Islam?". As Muslims, we must understand that.
