Question:<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the ruling on a woman who dies in a state that she was wearing nail polish, is it necessary that the nail polish be removed before burial?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u0628\u0633\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u062d\u064a\u0645<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is obligatory that the deceased be given a ghusl<\/em> (ritual bath<\/em>).<\/em> The ghusl would only be correct if the water reaches every part of the body as in the case of the living. If there is anything attached to the body which prevents water from reaching the skin, nails or hairs then the ghusl will be invalid. Furthermore the deceased will not attain Taharah<\/em> (ritual purity).<\/span><\/p>\n

Regarding your question, the nail polish prevents water from reaching that part of the body which is obligatory to be washed i.e. the nails. Subsequently, the ghusl will be invalid causing the body to remain in a state of Ritual Impurity. Such a state prevents the validity of Salatul Janaazah. Therefore the nail- polish must be removed in order that the water reaches the nails.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the event that the nail-polish was not removed from the nails of the deceased, there are four situations that must be considered, they are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

(a) If the deceased was shrouded without the nail-polished being removed, it is incumbent that the Kafan<\/em> (Burial Shroud) be taken out, thereafter the nail-polish be removed and then the nails be washed.<\/span><\/p>\n

(b) If Salaatul Janaazah was performed without the nail-polished being removed, then the same will apply i.e. it will still be incumbent to remove it and complete the ghusl by washing the nails. As stated above, Taharah<\/em> (ritual purity) is a condition for the validity of the Salatul Janazah. Therefore, Salatul Janazah would have to be repeated as the first one would not be valid.<\/span><\/p>\n

(c) Similarly is the case where the deceased was placed in the grave, before the dirt was thrown i.e. the body would have to be taken out of the grave, nail-polish removed, nails washed, Salaatul Janazah repeated and then re-entered into the grave.[1]<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

(d) If however, dirt was thrown on the grave the body would not<\/strong> be removed, except that, Salaatul Janazah would have to be repeated. This is because the first Janazah was not valid. However, the reason why the second Janazah would only be valid (even though the ghusl is not complete) is because of the difficulty involved in giving the body a proper ghusl after being buried. In this case the second Janazah would be performed upon the grave of the deceased.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ruling on \u201cpermeable or breathable\u201d Nail-Polishes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The above ruling refers to all types of nail-polish, even though it may be labelled as: breathable nail-polish, permeable nail-polish, water based nail-polish, halal nail-polish etc. The reason for this is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(1) Various tests conducted have shown that most of these nail-polishes listed above are in fact water resistant or do not allow the water to penetrate especially when considering the manner in which wudhu is normally performed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(2)If a test proves the permeability of the nail-polish, then such results may be based on specific conditions and factors, alteration of these conditions may affect the permeability. These factors includes: time (i.e. duration of time before penetration occurred), pressure (at the time of application), temperature, number of layers (most of the time a single layer is applied to prove permeability), manner of spreading, testing surfaces etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(3) There may be nail-polishes that are regarded as permeable in that water reaches the surface of the nail. However,<\/strong> such penetration is only attained after rubbing the nails several times, and in most instances such exaggeration (i.e. the rubbing of ten nails several times) is not exercised when performing ghusl\/wudhu.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

(4) Even though the nails may be rubbed several times, there is a great possibility that portions of the nail\u2019s surface beneath the polish remains dry. This is because the penetration is not generalised (i.e. reaching the entire surface of the nail), what actually reaches the surface is a localized dampness that does not spread unto the dry area.<\/span><\/p>\n

(5) Taharah (ritual purity) is an aspect connected to Ibaadah (worship) and the Islamic Jurists state that precaution must be adopted in matters related to Ibaadah<\/span><\/p>\n

NB<\/strong>: The above ruling also applies to the living, in fact it is more applicable to them.<\/span><\/p>\n
