hey what are you embarrassing everybody on this on this life bilal hussein is it sinful to stand up at urine a i'm hope forgive me Father for I have sinned what have you done I needed to take a leak is there something you human aging on me I'm just trying to understand the same a wisest thing I mean it's going it's gonna go out obviously can't just keep building it up all the fluid yeah
so it's absolutely fine don't worry about it relieve yourself don't worry about it man it's all good it's all good there's nothing the only reason why some people spoke against this standing up and taking a slash supple to speak was simply because of the kind of clothing that they wore and there was a great chance that it would you would get a splash back not like a full blast not like you go
okay I'm just about to relieve myself and come straight back at you full speed not like that but there was a chance that it you would get certain splashes maybe on your clothes and things like that so this is why the scholars didn't like that that said it's perfectly fine it's fine don't worry you don't worry I know the hanafis are a bit weird on that Hanafy School of Law but I don't worry about them there it's not like the first time they're being weird and you gotta remember that you see you know in
certain clothing it's easy to sit down and urinate so let's say you're wearing a sarong like the kind of the potty that they wear there is a czar or delonghi as some people call it now wearing a lungi a lungi is actually even different but it's still easy because the longi is like I think it's in Bangladesh and some parts of India and other countries like Malaysia but the Leung he is like a fully tied so you kind of step into it and then wrap it round whereas the these are the 30 that they have in Pakistan that they used to be
oh these are that they were wore in Arabia ancient Arabia is like a sarong like that so it's just like an open class that you just tie around you now you can imagine if you're walking around in that if you're walking around commando the way people were back then you know when one men were men in that day and age if you're walking around and you need to go to the toilet you're not going to really just lift up your sarong
and go hey so it's very convenient for you to just sit down it's very convenient to sit down and do what you have to do it's much more convenient than actually trying to raise you because if you try to raise you're actually with a thottie you could probably you know with the asari is our you can probably do it but still it's actually you know you much more easier to just sit down and do that but now if and even with the shalwar kameez it's actually because the shalwar that
they were in Pakistan for example it's actually very large it has what they call the Nara the Nara is like like a belt feature right so it actually brings it makes it look tight so the shalwar which looks baggy is actually very few if you stretch it out it opens really far so it's very convenient to still sit down and you know if you need to relieve yourself relieve oneself but you see with the trousers how on earth could you sit down in public I mean unless you
took the trousers off so people are not gonna do that especially you gotta remember in the past they never had these kind of public toilets like this so and you never had like bathrooms the way they designed so obviously for guys walking in a park and he thinks oh I need a leak so he's hot and just hang it on the branch yeah all that to sit down it's too much you know
this arm so because of that it's so there's no problem associating there's no sin no mortal sin people no sin at all relax relax so what else is going
