Chapter on the Description of Ablution (Wudu)

These narrations were reported as a matter of precaution (taqiyyah) to align with the views of those who held differing opinions. This is evident from the previously mentioned narrations, which negate the necessity of taking new water for wiping. There can be no contradiction in their sayings and actions عليه السلام. It is also possible that the instruction refers to cases where the moisture on the face or other areas of purification has dried up, necessitating the renewal of washing and taking fresh water for wiping, as indicated in the narration. Alternatively, it could mean placing the hand in water remaining in the beard or eyebrows rather than in the container or elsewhere. If this interpretation is considered, the apparent contradiction is resolved. This understanding is supported by further evidence and reasoning provided in related narrations.
