Tahara, Wudu, Ghusla - Purification and Cleanliness For the Pleasure of Allah (swt)

 

ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends.

Sometimes in taking off our shoes to make Wudu in the Masjids we may pick up some very strong and difficult to treat foot fungi on the bathroom tiles or flip flop shoes that we place upon our feet. The best protection against that is to make Wudu and Ghusla at home right before going to the Masjid. The reason it is worth mentioning is because Tahara, Wudu and Ghusla are acts of Ibadah. All activities involving cleaning are acts of Ibadah for Muslims. This is what brings the Sakinah of Allah (swt) near to the worshiper because Allah (swt) loves purity, and cleanliness.

But, if the person washed at the Masjid and picked up a fungus, then there are some powerful natural solutions. I have 3 solutions that I found on the internet. Another reason that it is worth mentioning is that it is good to mention this to Revert and Convert Muslims.

Using a plastic container with a depth of 15-Qt/14-Liter, and dimensions are 12 inches wide by 16 inches long.

Solution 1 - Strongest

Vinegar and Water

1 Part Vinegar to 2 Parts Water. For that container 36 cups cover all of feet. It is good for the water to be warm

It is suggested not to leave the feet in this solution more than 15 minutes, and to do this once per day for 14-21 days.

Solution 2 - Moderate Strength

Hydrogen Peroxide and Water

4 measuring cups of Hydrogen Peroxide to 32 cups of Water. It is good for the water to be warm.

It is suggested to soak feet for 30-60 minutes.

Solution 3 - Mildly Strong

Baking Soda and Water.

32-36 cups of warm water and 1/2 of a 1 lb box of Baking Soda.

It is worth mentioning because it should not be forgotten to say these things to reverts and converts. They may not always see right away that, "the meaning of Life is the Worship of Allah (swt)"; nor seeing that many of the things that we do in life are interconnected to Ibadah and are acts of Ibadah themselves. 

By (Ikhlas) and (Tauhara or Tahara) and (Tayyib and Halal):

We are in Salaat while we are washing (Wudu and Ghusla) for Salaat. We are in Salaat while we are cleaning the home (vacuuming, etc.). We are in Salaat while we are doing the laundry. We are in Salaat while we are cleaning the car. We are in Salaat while we are grcoery shopping for healthy foods, as well as, while preparing them in the kitchens. We are in Salaat while taking care and maintaining the inside and outside of the home, in addition to, communities. 

When COVID-19 is under control. We are in Salaat while we are going to work to earn enough money to continue and maintain these functions as well as fulfill obligations and engagements.

Lack Of Water Can Be Linked To Formation Of Some Diseases And Illnesses

ASA WR WB to believing muslim friends. I just thought about something

Low levels or scarcity of water in a region can be linked to the formation of diseases and illnesses in that region. But, Allah (swt) does give from His Mercy with the Ayats of Quran on washing before prayer and the use of Tayyamum where there is no water. Should always steer clear of alcoholic beverages, but particularly in dry regions. Alcohol is a hot substance (not a hydrating substance), so it would be a hot combined with the hotness of the region. But the result of the use of these 2 ayats some people would literally take for granted, but, is actually a miracle. This information in these ayats...it is miracle work in dry regions to avoid the diseases and illnesses (which can effect both the physical and the spiritual) that come with low levels of water for drinking and sanitation...with something that is being done before prayers.

"O ye who believe! Approach not prayers with a mind befogged, until ye can understand all that ye say,- nor in a state of ceremonial impurity (Except when travelling on the road), until after washing your whole body. If ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands. For God doth blot out sins and forgive again and again." ~ Surahtul Nisa Ayat 43

"O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and arms) to the elbows; Rub your heads (with water); and (wash) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands, Allah doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete his favour to you, that ye may be grateful." ~ Surahtul Maidah Ayat 6
