Is it necessary to perform Ghusl if a woman orgasms without intercourse but does not ejaculate or see any yellow fluid? Is it only the emitting of a fluid in that state that makes a person impure?
Zoheir Ali Esmail

Bismillah

Thank you for your question. This answer is from the website of Ayatullah Sistani (hA):

Question: Does a woman enter the state of Janabah, if she reaches orgasm without penetration?

Answer: As for the fluid that is discharged from the vagina when a woman engages in foreplay or imagines lustful thoughts and which is not enough to dirty other places [such as her clothing], it is pure and does not require Ghusl to be performed and nor does it invalidate Wuḍū. However, if the discharged fluid is a lot – to the extent that it can be called an ‘ejaculation’ and it dirties clothing – then in case it is discharged when the woman reaches sexual climax and complete sexual satisfaction (orgasm), it is impure and causes Janābah. In fact, even if it is not discharged at that moment, based on obligatory precaution it is impure and causes janābah. And whenever a woman doubts whether or not a discharge of fluid was to this extent, or she doubts whether or not fluid was discharged at all, performing Ghusl is not obligatory on her and nor does it invalidate Wuḍūʾ and Ghusl.

Why is a dog considered impure and not allowed to be kept inside a house?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Every rule in Islam is based on our interest and avoiding us any harm. We do not know all the details of the reason but Allah (SWT) and the Prophet (SAWA) know the full reasons. We trust Allah and His Messenger and believe that dog is Najis because it is harmful for us to be in contact with dog.

Many medical scientists confirmed that many dangerous parasites can come to humans from contact with dog.

Journal of Medicine and Life stated : Dogs are a major reservoir for zoonotic infections.Dogs transmit several viral a bacterial diseases to humans.zoonotic diseases can be transmitted to humans by infected saliva aerosols,contaminated urine and feces and direct contact with the dog.

If I have a tiny cut on my hand or on one of the Wudu areas how can I do Wudu without spreading the Nijasa? Would I have to place a dry tissue and wipe over it or should I wait for the wound to heal first?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You need to wait till the blood stops, then perform Wudhu. If the blood does not stop, you put a bandage or plaster on it and perform Wudhu with wiping on the bandage.

When someone is Najis with urine or faeces, and they are in the shower, do they become Tahir by simply standing under the shower once, after the actual Najasa is removed, or must they step out from the shower and re-enter to wash twice?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

After the Najasat is removed, shower water falling on the Najis areas is enough immediately to make your body Taahir with out need to go out of the shower and re enter.

Wassalam.
