Why cant u pray namaaz with nail polish on? or fake nails?

In order to offer salat (namaz) you need to make ablution (wudu) and nail polish or fake nails plays a role of a barrier.. water doesn't reach to the nails properly and this wudu remains invalid and with an invalid wudu u cannot offer salat ~!Why cant u pray namaaz with nail polish on? or fake nails?
What Mullah passed that fatwa?





I've never heard anything so bizzarre in my life.











Izzie -





thanks for calling me an idiot, that's def the Muslim thing to do.





Anyway, the Prophet (sa) also said not to ask too many questions because then the deen will become too difficult of a burden on the people. I doubt that any bacteria can get into the seal formed by a fake nail and a real nail anyway. Not to mention, if there is nail polish on your fingers, that's not exactly a bacteria attracter either.





In fact, I would like to see the woman who puts on and takes off fake nails 5 times a day. There is no way anyone does that. I have seen Muslim women wearing fake nails, and never once have I heard of them removing them for wudoo. Your logic that bacteria will get in between the nail and the fake nail is flawed. Even if there is a space, flush it out with water.





It's niyyat (intention) we're after. Which is why tayammamm is allowed when water isn't available or if someone would have to do wudoo with too much difficulty.





Yeah, I comprendeWhy cant u pray namaaz with nail polish on? or fake nails?
You can not pray with your polish or fake nails because before praying you should make a wudhu by washing until the water get into your skin and nails without polish starting from the right and then to the left of arms,mouth,nose,face,hands,


,hair and ears and the last legs each 3 times
its just cuz u cant do wudu with it, like the water cant clean or something, i dont know i wish we were allowed though because i love nail polish :-( and i hate when people tell me just wear it when ur on ur period, im sorry but at that time of month i couldnt care less about my NAILS lol





but i heard from someone that if u have ur wudu before u put them on then its okay, then i hear from others that it isnt true





so i am as confused as u are and i was just about to ask this question so ima star it :-D
for the 1qfactor idiot....no, it wasn't the mullah ruling....it was our common sense! We all muslims wash our hands before prayer. (Do you wash your hand before yours?Oh, there goes the Ecoli to your face...) it is a part of wudhu' to wash your hands. And technically, when wearing fake nails, water does not reach the fingernails (which is, in case you don't know, a major source of germs in your hands!). When water does not reach the fingernails, that means you are not washing your hands. thus not completing the wudhu. Comprende??
not a thousand percent sure, but i think its ok bcuz God says in the Quran to not take religion hard or make yourself suffer bcuz of it, like when u pray with your hijab on and a little of your hair is outside, thats ok as well.





Remeber intention is also very important, so if u r nnoto sure or dont deem something valid, the just dont do it if possible.
Nail polish and fake nails are not good for you. They are fake beauty that women use to cover up her real beauty that God gave her, or to attract attention from the opposite sex. The water can't get to the nails and under the nails if a woman is wearing nail polish, makeup or fake nails.
in order for wudu you need to have your hands wet, including your fingernails, but when theres something thats sheilding your nails, like a nail polish coat, water does not touch your fingernail. Therefore wudu is not valid, and you cannot pray.
real talk i don't know this religion, but i would guess that it would be because fake nails and nail polish is cosmetic, and you weren't born with it
u cant pray w/ it because they cover ur real nails and when u do wudu ur real nails wouldn't be washed.. so ur wudu wouldnt be complete.
cos water needs to wet your figernails when you do wudu.
Becos you'll look too attractive during prayer and satan may become attached to you....not good.
