Invalidation of Wudu due to drinking alcohol |
Darulifta Ahlesunnat |
(Dawateislami) |
Question |
What do respected scholars of Islam say about the following issue? Will Wudu become invalid if a person drinks even a single drop of alcohol? |
بِسْمِ اللہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ |
اَلْجَوَابُ بِعَوْنِ الْمَلِکِ
الْوَھَّابِ اَللّٰھُمَّ ھِدَایَۃَ الْحَقِّ وَالصَّوَابِ |
It is Haraam to
drink even a single drop of alcohol. This is also impure. Therefore, if a
part of the mouth or clothing or body is soiled with alcohol equal to the
quantity of a dirham either collectively or separately, so it will not be
permissible to offer Salah. If offered in the same state, so it will be Wajib
to repeat the Salah. If the soiled part is more than the quantity of a
dirham, so Salah will not be valid at all. As for the invalidation of Wudu,
so Wudu does not become invalid due to any external impurity coming into
contact with the body or clothes. When anything impure is excreted from the
body, then Wudu becomes invalid but there is also detail in it. However, if
anyone drinks alcohol or takes any drug so much that it causes stupor to the
extent of stagger, so Wudu will become invalid in this case. It should remain
clear that drinking alcohol is Haraam and it is necessary for the alcoholic
not to drink it again and to repent of it. |
