Q 4: When I was in
Makkah
performing Tawaf-ul-Wada‘ (circumambulation around the Ka‘bah on leaving Makkah), after the fifth round of Tawaf, I felt a movement in my rear. The accursed Iblis (Satan) whispered to me that I broken wind, but I did not follow this whispering because I did not feel that anything had been emitted from my behind, although I have lost my sense of smell. I sought refuge with Allah from Iblis, put my trust in Allah and
I continued performing Tawaf and the two Raka‘hs (units of Prayer).
Did I do anything wrong and if so, what should I do?
A:
The basic rule is that: Taharah (ritual purification) remains; your doubting whether something has come out of you does not overrule Taharah; therefore, your Tawaf and the Salah (Prayer) you offered after it are valid.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
