Issue No.629- If besides ṭāhir water, one also has enough najis water to fulfil his drinking need, he still cannot drink the najis water. Instead, he should leave the ṭāhir water for drinking and perform tayammum for prayer. However, there is no problem in giving the najis water to animals.
Issue No. 1279- The follower should not perform any acts of the prayer like rukū‘ and sajdah before the imam. He has to perform them with the imam or a little after him. And if he raises his head from rukū‘ before the imam by mistake, he should return to rukū‘, and then raise his head with the imam. In this case, the extra rukū‘ will not invalidate the prayer. However, if the imam raises his head before the follower reaches him in rukū‘, the prayer of the follower will be void.
Issue No.375- If a person is sure that the time for prayer has set in and intends to perform an obligatory ghusl, but comes to know after performing it (ghusl) that it has been performed before the time, the ghusl will be valid. Similarly, if he performs ghusl with the intention of an obligatory prayer, then it turns out that the time for prayer had passed; his ghusl will still be correct.
Issue No.609- It is recommended to perform ghusl for entering sacred places such as Mecca and Medina, Masjid Al-haram, the Mosque of the holy Prophet (ṣ), and the shrines of the infallible Imams (as). If one visits these holy places several times a day, one ghusl would be sufficient. Also, if a person intends to go to Mecca and enter Masjid Al-Haram, or to Medina and enter the Mosque of the holy prophet in one day, one ghusl with the intention of all of them will suffice. It is also mustaḥab to perform ghusl for performing Ziyarat of the Holy Prophet (ṣ) and infallible Imams (as) whether from near or far. It is also mustaḥab to perform ghusl for making oneself fresh for performing acts of worship and also before going on a journey. All of these ghusls should be performed with the intention of rajā’ (i.e., hoping that it is a desirable act in the eyes of Allah Almighty).
Issue No.530- Ghusl on the body of a Muslim child, though of illegitimate birth, is obligatory. It is also obligatory to perform ghusl on someone who has been insane since childhood and has grown up without recovering if either of his parents is Muslim. Similarly, it is necessary to perform ghusl on the dead body of a person who had been Muslim and then became insane.
Issue No. 406- If a woman has performed ghusl and wuḍū before the time of prayer, she must perform wuḍū and ghusl again at the time of prayer, as an obligatory precaution.
Issue No.390- We said earlier that the perspiration of a person who is in a state of janābah due to a haram act is not najis, and such a person may perform ghusl with warm water. However, it would be better to do it with tepid water so that he may not perspire.
Issue No. 1742- It is permissible to receive zakāt or the portion of Imam from khums, and perform ḥajj, and this ḥajj will be considered as the obligatory ḥajj.
Issue No. 1200- A person who has qaḍā prayer on him from the previous days can offer the daily prayer before offering the qaḍā prayer. In case, however, a person has missed one or two prayers just before the prayer he is going to offer he should, as an obligatory precaution, offer the qaḍā of those prayers before the present prayer.
Issue No.1141- If a person who is returning from a haram journey has repented [to Allah (swt)] he should shorten his prayer if the return journey covers eight farsakhs or more. The same ruling applies if he has not repented, yet he is not sinning anymore on his return, in this case, he should offer qaṣr prayer.
Issue No.356- If a person who is obliged to perform jabīrah wuḍū or ghusl knows that his excuse will not cease until the end of the prayer time; he can perform his prayer at the beginning of the time. However, if there is hope that his excuse will cease before the end of prayer time, he should wait, as an obligatory precaution.
Issue No.818- Performing prayer in the shrines of the holy Imams (as) is mustaḥab. It has been narrated that offering prayer in the sacred shrine of Amir al-Mu’minīn Imam Ali (as) is equal to 200,000 prayers .
