Question: Some women take certain medication to delay their monthly period, especially during Ramadhan and Hajj. However, in some cases intermittent (irregular) blood appears during their period time. This blood does not have the same characteristics of Haydh. What is the ruling in this case? Answer: Based on this question, the ruling of Haydh is not applicable to the intermittent blood, as it does not have the characteristics and duration (3 days) of Haydh, so their fast of the month of Ramadhan and Hajj is valid. -
Question: We asked the office of our Marja’ that in cleaning the floors of hospitals, hotels, laboratories, apartments and the like, impurity such as blood and the like is wiped with a wet broom/mop and it can be seen a lot. It was replied that you have to deem it to be pure. Is this reply based on the principle of compliance with intolerable and difficult situations or is it something else? Answer: To avoid obsessions, and hardships in people's lives, Islam considers the principle of purity to be present in everything and has ordered this general rule: only if you are sure that something is impure, you are obliged to avoid it. Otherwise, you have no duty; Therefore, all the things that we do not know about their impurity, or we doubt their impurity, or even we suspect that they are impure, are all pure and we have no duty to avoid them.

Question: I don't consider any place in our house to be pure (Tahir), not even water or other things... I am obsessed and sometimes I lose my mental balance because of a lot of rinsing, ablution, ghusl or prayer... and I say disbelief. And there have been times when I have consciously spread impurity to clothes, etc. when I saw the impurity with my own eyes and I have a conventional certainty that I spread it. Now I want to repent and pray and return to the path of life without obsession. please guide me. Answer: Obsession is a mental illness and an evil condition that needs to be treated with a lot of practice and consultation with technical experts. According to Shari'ah, an obsessive person is obliged to ignore his temptations and act like normal people. If you are sure that you have transferred impurity, in such a way that if you tell the story to the people around you, they will also consider those items as impure, then it is necessary to purify and clean those items. But be sure to pay attention to the rinsing method and do not wash more than necessary.

Question: It is written in Risalah that: If grape juice boils by itself or by cooking, it is Tahir (pure), but eating that grape juice is forbidden; Unless it becomes wine, in which case, in addition to being forbidden, it is also Najis (impure). Likewise, eating boiled grapes is haram according to obligatory precaution, but it is not ritually impure. My questions are: 1. Does this issue also include grape syrup? 2. Does this issue include grape jam? 3. While cooking, some syrups add some soil to it. After cooking the syrup, the soil does not show that it was previously poured into it, that is, it dissolves in it. Is it permissible to eat such syrup? Answer: 1- If grape juice is boiled, but before two-thirds of it evaporates, it turns into grape syrup, according to the necessary precautions, it is not halal to eat, and it can be mixed with water, and after that two-thirds of it evaporates it becomes Halal. Also, the above applies to grape jam. 2- After evaporation of two thirds, grape syrup and its jam, if it boils by itself or by cooking, it is pure and halal to eat. Unless it is intoxicating. 3- A small amount of soil, which is usually lost and dissolved during cooking, is not a problem.

Purity and impurity Question: What about the leather products made in a European country, if we are unaware of the source of that leather? It is said that some European countries import cheap leather from Muslim countries and then use it for manufacturing various products. Can we consider such leather pure? Are we allowed to say salat in them? Can such a weak probability [about it originating from a Muslim country] be given any credence? Answer: If the probability of the leather originating from a zabiha (an animal slaughtered Islamically) source is so weak that people would not normally give any credence (for example, the probability of 2%), it is to be considered impure and this cannot be used in salat. But if the probability is not so weak, it can be considered pure, and using it in salat would be permissible.
