Now Muslim Women Can Wear Nailpolish

NOW MUSLIM WOMEN CAN WEAR NAIL POLISH
with having to pray five times a day, it was impossible for muslim women to pray with nailpolish painted hands, when it was said by many scholars Wadu is not fulfilling the requirements when water is not touching the surface of the nail.

PRZEMYSL, Poland - For Zaida Saleh, like for many observant Muslim women, manicures have long posed a religious problem.

With prayers five times a day, and a pre-prayer ritual that requires washing the hands and arms, traditional fingernail polish has been mostly off limits because it prevents water from making contact with the nails.
A new "breathable" nail polish by a Polish company, Inglot, is changing that.
The company and some Muslims say the polish is the first of its kind because it lets air and moisture pass through to the nail. A craze has built up around it with Muslim women in recent months after an Islamic scholar in the United States tested its permeability and published an article saying that, in his view, it complies with Muslim law.
"It's huge," said Saleh, a 35-year-old who hadn't polished her nails in many years but immediately went out and bought the product in five colours, including a bright pink, a burgundy and a mauve. "I am excited. I feel more feminine — and I just love it."
The news of Inglot's breathable polish has in recent months spread quickly from woman to woman and over the Internet. It also has given Inglot a boost in sales of the product, called O2M, for oxygen and moisture.
The nail polish now stands as one of the final life achievements of Wojciech Inglot, a Polish chemist and entrepreneur who developed it to create what he billed as a healthier alternative to traditional nail enamels, which block the passage of moisture and oxygen to the nail. He died suddenly on Saturday at the age of 57 after suffering internal hemorrhaging, and is being laid to rest on Wednesday in his hometown of Przemysl.
Inglot has been the recipient of several business leadership awards for taking an enterprise that he started in 1983, when Poland was still under communist rule, and turning it into an international success. A Polish award he received last year praised him for "proving that Poland is a country where innovative technologies go hand-in-hand with beauty." Today his company has shops in almost 50 countries, including one at Times Square in New York City and boutiques in malls from Moscow to Istanbul to Dubai.
Though the Muslim holy book, the Qur’an, does not specifically address the issue of nail polish, some Islamic scholars have said that water must touch the surface of the nail for the washing ritual to be done correctly.
Some Muslim women might put nail polish on after finishing the last prayer of the day before going out, and then take it off again before dawn prayers. They can also wear it during their periods, when they are excused from the prayers, but some find it embarrassing to do so because it could signal they are menstruating. Some simply don't want to take the trouble of getting a manicure that won't last long

aalim was debating and shouting on these less important matters when Spain and Baghdad were conquered. Todays frailing situation of Islam specially Pakistani Muslims is due to these jahil aalims.Allah Tala save us from them and bless us with the guideness and knowledge of HIS Din.

Assalamo Alaikum,

I would like to get this clarification. Finding out whether one's wudhu is valid or not so one can pray salah is the way of the juhala'?

When the sahaba were doing wudhu', out of hurry some left out a small portion on their heels dry. Rasulullah salallahu alayhi wasallam warned that "Beware of the heels in fire"!!

Wudhu' is an important aspect of a muslims life. Let along talk about refuting the baatil forces, what spirituality are we securing in our religion when one is being encourage to leave the matters on which one's salah depends on. SubhanAllah, ethay teh iqbal di sha'iri wi nayo kam aani.

Assalamo Alaikum,

No it is not true. The wudhu without water (Tayammum) is in absence of water or for other such excuse. There is ijmaa' on this issue. One cannot simply pick an idea and then make a religious ruling around it.

As long as there is no excuse, the wudhu MUST be done with a cleansing liquid.

Your argument is similar to saying, since in certain excusable scenario we can eat pig, then discussing whether one's food has pork or pig in it has no meaning.

It is a duty of every individual muslim to fulfil the requirement of shariah before prancing around talking about global stability. The ummah is NOT in peril because we have instability in ummah, rather the instability in the ummah is because we have left our obligation towards the Shariah and its ahkaam.
