First Chapter – appearance/Fraizer's race for life
-What is life but a dream, sooner or later we will allhave to be
awoken, why not today?-
"Another boring day in life…"
Fraizer sighed as he crawled out of bed. At twenty eight years old,
Jack W Fraizer was five foot nine and had a lean, handsome face with
darkeyes. Fraizer was quite young for a language professor; in
addition, hewas also the only Asian professor teaching at Stanford
University.
Fraizer was smart, resulting in a very high pay. In fact, his salary
was higher than most of his American colleagues. This aroused jealousy
from other professors, and racial taunts were unavoidable.
I'll show those stupid Americans someday…Fraizer thought acidly and
started dressing. He glanced at the clock beside his bed top. 8
o'clock! Damn it, I've sleptin again!
Fraizer moaned and finished dressing. He wore a black tie and suit,
very awkward for a professor, perhaps too formal. Fraizer didn't care,
he loathed his job. Fraizer had dreamed to become a professional
dancer or a FBI agent when he grew up.
But I guess some things just don't work out. The only thing that's
keeping me in this warped school is the money…Fraizer's thought
trailed him as hescurried down the stairs. Just as he was about to
open the front door, the doorbell rang.
'Ding-Dong!' Fraizer was taken by surprise. Who would ring my doorbell
at 8:15 in the morning?
Fraizer cautiously openedthe door, and found himself staring awkwardly
at five unknown men. One was dressed entirely in black, he even wore
sunglasses.He looks pretty familiar, Fraizer muttered. He looked at
the other men, they looked like soldiers of some sort, and they all
wore identical things – heavy body amours, armyhelmets and machine
guns strapped behind their back. Their gazes showed no emotion but
gayness.
The man who resembled Bruce Lee broke the silence. "Hello Professor,
my name is Michael Phongsivorabouth," he smiled, but it was not a warm
smile, it was an ominous one.
"Michael…what? What kind of gay last name is that?"
"I'm afraid you're right. I am actually a homosexualperson. And I have
some bad news for you, professor," Michael intoned solemnly.
What? How can he just admit that he's a homo infront of everybody?
Well I guess nowadays homos aren't "that" weird…Fraizer considered for
a moment, and then casually replied: "What kind of news? Does it
involve dead bodies?"
"Apparently, yes, professor. I'm sorry it has to end this way."
"What? It hasn't even started!" Fraizer shouted,confused. "And what
are we talking about anyway?"
Michael nodded in immense gayness, but did not elaborate.
"Oh…SHIT!" Fraizer's eyes opened wide with horroras the four soldiers
unstrapped their machine guns and pointed them directly at him!
With pure survival instinct and quick reflexes, Fraizer turned and
dived back into his house, kicking the door shut behind him. For a
split second, he thought nothing would happen; then, it came.
Deafening sounds of fire power exploded all around him.
Fraizer quickly rolled away protecting his face from shattered glass
and small chunks of wood chips. 'Black Jesus!' he yelled as he felt an
enormous jolt of pain coming from his right arm. The pain nearly
overwhelmed his senses and with great difficulty he managed not to
dancearound yelling.
Fraizer stood up, he staggered a bit but regained his balance soon
after. Fraizer found the stair case and hurriedup, leaping across two
steps at a time, ignoring the pain as he did so. He reached the second
floor and ran straight for his bedroom, slamming the door shut after
him.
He checked his injuries – three bullet wounds and a couple of cuts
from shattered glass. They all hurt like hell. Okay…Fraizer's mind
raced, five crazy men with one of them really gay are trying to kill
me, and how do I kill them without dying?
The gunfire below him ceased abruptly. Fraizer could hear distant
footsteps closing in, now he definitely had to thinkfast.
"Well, it seems like I've ran out of options!" Fraizer spoke aloud,
examining the window beside his bed top. The footsteps were getting
closer. Lucky for Fraizer, gay Michael and his team moved slowly up
the stairs as though afraid of some kind of ambush, thus buying
Fraizer some more time. Unlucky for Fraizer, he came up with no ideas
that were sufficient enough in apprehending Michael and his team.
Fraizer opened the window and peered through it with fear. Christ, it
is two stories tall! He calculated the distance, probably 160 feet or
so, he then calculated the survival chance of staying or jumping.
"Definitely jumping," he mumbled bitterly.
As his right leg was aboutto cross through the window, a gay, taunting
voice came from not far behind: "Professor! We'regoing to get you!
Considering the inconvenience you have caused us during this hunt,
you're going to die a much, much horrible way than what I originally
had in mind. I won't mind getting a bit physical~ you know, the gay
kind of physical…"
The voice gave Fraizer a sick feeling in the stomach. However, he
couldn't resist throwing back a nasty quip at the gay man: "That's why
I couldn't find your great grandpa in your last wedding! I could've
sworn that you disappeared with him, we found his body the following
day in shreds!"
Just like that, Fraizer leaped through the window gracefully a second
before an angry gay man came charging through his bedroom door with
four others behind him! Fraizer soared through the air and for a
moment there he actually thought he

Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

FullComedy 1
Beings our Lord created with strong senses
Why do some animals display extraordinary behaviors before an earthquake?
What are some beings' attitudes in the face of dangers?
What are some of the animal senses stronger than those of human beings?
Beings With Danger Signal
One of the biggest advantages of living as acommunity is that it
provides more protection against dangers because when any of the
animals that lives in the community senses danger, it warns the other
animals instead of simply silently escaping . Every living species has
a specific form of warning.
Rabbits and some deer lift their tails to warn theanimals around them
when they sense danger.
Many small birds signal alarm by a particular birdcall when they
sense their enemies. Species like the golden oriole make a
high-pitched sound witha narrow frequency interval when they give an
alarm. The human earsenses this as only a slight whistle. The most
important quality of this sound is that its source cannot be detected.
This is a very important advantage for the bird warning its pack,
because the bird actuallytakes the risk of drawingall attention to
itself by sounding off, but since the direction of the sound is not
certain, the danger is somewhat reduced.
In insects that live as colonies, the insect that first senses the
danger warns the rest of the colony. However, the alarm scent secreted
by the insect that communicates the danger also grabs the enemy's
attention . Therefore, the insect that warns its colony against danger
also takes the risk of death.
Prairie dogs live in massive colonies. Their nests, which bear
resemblance to a city, are divided into approximately 30 sections
where the animals live. All of the animals in this region know one
another. There are certain prairie dogs which keep guard at all times
standing on their back feet in a way as to see in all directions at
the entrance and exit of the tunnels. If one of the animals sees an
enemy, it makes a barking sound like a whistle. This warning is
repeated by the guards, and it causes the colony to go into an alarm
state.
Scientists who witness this cooperation in nature are amazed at the
extraordinary behaviors of these unconscious behaviors. No doubt,
Allah is the One Who directs these beings with His inspiration at all
times, controls every one of them and commands them how to behave.
This clear truth is revealed in the Qur'an assuch:
" Everything in the heavens and every creature on the earth prostrates
to Allah, as do the angels. They are not puffed up with pride. They
fear their Lord above them and do everything they are ordered to do. "
(Surat an-Nahl, 49-50)
Animals With Different Senses Than Human Beings
Allah created animals' sensory organs as stronger than those of human
beings. Some animals even have other sensory organs which humans do
not have, for example:
Since elephants are animals that live in vast open areas, it is very
important that there is a strong "communication"between them. This
communication is not only a result of elephants' strong sense of smell
. Besides this, Allah created an organ, which makes an ultrasound
noise that humans cannot hear, in the elephant's forehead. Thanks to
this organ, elephants can communicate with a secret and encrypted
language that other beings cannot understand. These ultrasound noises
made by elephants can reach to enormous distances. Therefore, this
special sound made by elephants is ideal for long distance
communication.
Some beings' eyes have far more advanced qualities than human beings.
For example, insects and bees can see ultraviolet light that the human
eye cannot . A layer in the eyes of mammals that hunt at nights and
night birds called the "tapetum" allows these beings to see in the
dark. Vultures in Africa can detect whether an animal lying on the
ground is dead orjust sleeping from a distance over 4,000 meters where
human beings cannot see that far even with binoculars.
Some animals' sense of smell is 100,000, even 1,000,000 times
strongerthan that of human beings. For example, dogs can sense even
the slightest smells called microphakia. Thanks to these
characteristics, dogs are used in the early diagnosis of some
metabolic distortions seen in men and characterized by different body
scents, as well as in police businesslike narcotics detection and
searching for fugitive criminals and in the search for trapped victims
of natural disasters such as landslides and earthquakes.
Some reptiles like the rattlesnake and horned viper have a special
sensory organ that detects temperature changes. This organ, found
inside a small concavity between the nostrils, is used to distinguish
whether objects are warm or cold. Thanks to this organ, snakes can
even detect low temperaturesbelow 1 0 C that come from a warm-blooded
animal (for example a mouse). At the same time, it is also very
sensitive against airflow and vibrations.
All beings emit electricityas well as heat. It is difficult for a
being that lives on land to detect these flows, because air acts as an
insulator. However, the situation isdifferent under water. Electricity
flows through water, which is a naturalinsulator. Therefore, a being
that can sense thiselectricity has a very effective advantage. Thus,
sharks are also beings with this advantage; they can sense all the
vibrations in water, temperature changes, salt level of water and
especially small changes in electricity fields caused by beings on the
move.
There are many cavities in sharks' bodies, filled with a jell-like
substance. Even though these cavities are mainly placed inside the
shark's head, they are spread throughout the fish's body. These
special organs, called " Lorenzini Bulbs" are perfect electricity
sensors. Sharks and speckled rays find their prey by using these
sensors. These organs are tied to the pores on the head and face of
the animal, and they are very sensitive as electroreceptors. So much
so that sharks can sense electrical displacement as minimalas one
twenty billionth of a volt. This is an amazing force, because this
means that when two 1.5 volt batteries areplaced 1,600 kilometers away
from one another, sharks would be able to detect the current emitted
from these batteries.
Allah, the All-Knowing and All-Powerful, is the One Who creates these
advanced senses of living beings or special organs. In one verse,
ourLord's art of creation is revealed as such:
" Allah created you from dust and then from a drop of sperm and then
made you into pairs. No female becomes pregnant or gives birth except
with His knowledge. And no living thing lives long or has its life cut
short without that being in a Book. That is easy for Allah. " (Surah
Fatir, 11)
Beings That Sense Earthquakes
Scientific research done has shown that tectonic layers are under a
very powerful pressure before an earthquake and that rocks released
electrically charged particles under this pressure. These particles go
into reaction when they meet with air or water and cause new molecules
to be formed. For example, hydrogen peroxide is formed as these
particles mix with water. This incident, which changes the water's
chemistry in puddles, is sensed by living beings, and causesthem to
display extraordinary behaviors and sense the earthquakes beforehand.
In 2009, an entire group of frogs that lived in a lake close to the
earthquake that affectedthe city of L'Aquila of Italy, left the area
three days before the earthquake.
In 1975, almost one month before the earthquake that took place in
the city of Haicheng, China, snakes collectively abandoned their
nests. The unusual point is that these snakes left despite the
freezing cold, which would lead to their deaths, by breaking short
their hibernation for the winter.
In some regions, it was observed that deep-water fish surfacedbefore
earthquakes.
As seen in these examples, every one of these beings is under Allah's
protection. Allah inspires each one of them how to behave and they
follow this inspiration completely. Each and every one has submitted
to Allah Who created them. In the Qur'an, this fact is revealed as
such:
" Everyone in the heavens and earth belongs to Him. All are submissive
to Him. " (Surat ar-Rum, 26)
Our Lord's Infinite Mercy Encompasses All Being and the Universe
The fact that living beings maintain their lives thanks to the special
sensory organs, instincts and alarm techniques our Lord granted to
them, and that they protect especially their offspringagainst dangers
with great care and cooperate with one another, are only some of the
evidences of creation that one needs to think about.
There is no doubt that living beings do not make these characteristics
of their own freewill. Everything in nature is the work of our Lord,
Who has infinite knowledge and might, and each one moves with His
inspiration. He has superior might, compassion, mercy, intelligence,
knowledge and wisdom. This truth isrevealed in one verse of the
Qur'an:
" I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord. There is no
creature He does not hold by the forelock. My Lord is on a Straight
Path. " (Surah Hud, 56)
Everything in nature is the work of Allah, Who has infinite knowledge
and might. Allah is the One Who creates all beings, men, animals,
insects, plants, all animate and inanimate beings, and Who has
superior might, compassion, mercy, intelligence, knowledge and wisdom.
In the verses, it is revealed as such:
" All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the heavens and the Lord of
the earth,Lord of all the worlds. All greatness belongs to Him in the
heavens and earth He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. " (Surat
al-Jathiyya, 36-37)
There is an impeccable order in the entire universe. There is no doubt
that this is the creation of Allah, Who controls animate and inanimate
thing from the smallest microorganism to the giant planets of the
Solar System. Every one of the beings, which are full of perfections,
also submits to Allah Who created it and carries out the commands our
Lord planned for it. In one verse it is revealed as follows:
" Say: 'To whom does everything in the heavens and earth belong?' Say:
'To Allah.' He has made mercy incumbent on Himself. He will gather you
to theDay of Rising about which there is no doubt. As for those who
have lost their own selves, they have no iman. " (Surat Al-An'am , 12)

''The thunder glorifiesHis praise''
3 billion thunders a year…
A source of energy that moves at a speed of 96.000 km per hour and
releases 30.000 degrees of heat.
Have you ever thought how thunder, one of themost magnificent
atmospheric incidents that Allah creates, is formed and how it is
capable of releasing such a high amount of energy?
During rainfall, thunder and lightning that are made up of bright
lights forming in the course of atmospheric discharge of electricity
are in fact energy resources producing more electricity than
thousands of power plants; besides being a climatic phenomenon. The
answer to the questions of how these natural energy sources are formed
and how powerful they give out light and heat is a wonder of creation
revealing the Ever-Lasting Might and Glory of Our Lord.
A magnificence forming in a split second: Miracle of Lightning
• The energy released by a single lightning boltis greater than the
energy produced in all power plants across the entire America.
• One lightning can light a 100 watt bulb for more than 3 months.
• At the contact point of a lightning to the ground, weather is
warmed up to 25.000oC. The speed of a lightning bolt is 150.000 km per
second and its average thickness is 2.5-5 cm.
• Lightning produces nitrogen molecules that are essential for the
vegetation covering our Earth to sustain its life.
• An average lightning possesses 20.000 ampereof electric power. A
welder uses only 250-400 ampere to weld steel.
• Lightning moves at a speed of 150.000 km per second, that is
almost at half of the speed of lightand it is 100.000 times faster
than sound.
Light released by one lightning is greater than that of 10 million
100-watt light bulbs. That is to say; if every house in Istanbul had a
light a bulb on, illumination from a single lightning bolt would be
greater. Allah announces this glamorous flash of lightning as: "…The
brightness of His lightning almost blinds the sight.." (Surat An-Nur,
43)
How is lightning formed?
Air, warmed by the sunlight rises carrying along the water evaporating
inside it. When this risen air reaches 2-3 km, it comes into contact
with the layers of cold air.
Ice crystals that are formed inside the cloudsat the time of air
rising, release static electric energy formed due to friction. This
electrical energy is loaded positive(+) on top layers of the clouds
and negative (-) on low layers. When the cloud is loaded enough to
ionize the air; lightning is formed.
Why does it thunder?
Lightning heats the air nearby up to 30.000 degrees Celsius in one
millionth of a second. The air warmed up dilates. And it propagates
sound wavesmuch faster than the speed of sound; with a pressure 100
times greater than the normal atmospheric pressure. Similar to the
airplanes crossing the speed of sound, this causes an explosion sound
in the air. And this is named as thunder.
Why does not the light and sound of thunder reach the earth simultaneously?
This is because the sound of thunder reaches us at the speed of sound
(340 m/secondsin air); whereas the visual aspect of the lightning
reaches us at the speed of light (299.793 km/seconds). This causes a
time difference between the two incidents and thus results in the
bolt reaching the earth before the thunder.
What is the difference between lightning and thunderbolt?
When the difference in electric charge becomes greater between the
earth and the cloud, it becomes easier for air tobe pierced and from
earth to the cloud; electrical discharge starts through the conductor
duct formed by the pierced air. The electrical discharge fromthe
clouds is called lightning and the electrical discharge fromthe earth
back to the cloud is called thunderbolt or return stroke.
The fact of lightning declared in the Holy Quran
Surah Ar-Ra'd is one of the chapters in the Quran and it means "TheThunder".
Allah announces that thethunder formed by the lightening repeats His praises:
"The thunder glorifies His praise, as do the angels, out of fear of
Him. …" (Surah Ar-Ra'd, 13)
Strike of lightning reminds us of death
Experiences of those who survived a strike of lightning that causes
thedeath of hundreds of people every year, remind us of death as well
as revealing the helplessness of man in the Presence of Allah.
The possibility of gettingstruck by lightning is one in 700,000; yet
one should not underestimate this possibility as well as the effects
of the lightning. According to the statements made by those who have
been struck by lightning, the electrical current can explode the
buttons and zippers on the clothes and people can faint andfall down.
Due to brain damage, people who have been treated for 1-2 months at
the intensive care divisions of hospitals are having to re-learning
how to walk, how to swallow, or in other words how to live again.
These people have described how they felt, and say it is as if they
"lived death and then were resurrected."
In the Holy Quran, a very similar incident occurredin a strike of
lightning Allah showed to the people of Prophet Moses(as). With a
disgraceful and false courage, the Israelites demanded thatthe Prophet
Moses (as) enable them to see Allah with their own eyes and while
demanding this, they were shown the similar effect of a lightning. The
following statements in the verse "So the thunder-bolt struck you
dead" and "Then We brought you back to life after your death," may be
a sign forthe fact that they felt resurrected after their heart stop
related to the shock as well as the loss of consciousness and loss of
memory they experienced. (Allah knows the best). Here are the related
verses in the Quran:
And when you said, 'Moses, we will not believe in you until we see
Allah with our own eyes.' So the thunder-bolt struck you dead while
you were looking. Then We brought you back to life after your death,
so that perhaps you would show thanks. (Surat al-Baqara, 55-56)
A source of energy that moves at a speed of 96.000 km per hour and
releases 30.000 degrees of heat.
Have you ever thought how thunder, one of themost magnificent
atmospheric incidents that Allah creates, is formed and how it is
capable of releasing such a high amount of energy?
During rainfall, thunder and lightning that are made up of bright
lights forming in the course of atmospheric discharge of electricity
are in fact energy resources producing more electricity than
thousands of power plants; besides being a climatic phenomenon. The
answer to the questions of how these natural energy sources are formed
and how powerful they give out light and heat is a wonder of creation
revealing the Ever-Lasting Might and Glory of Our Lord.
A magnificence forming in a split second: Miracle of Lightning
• The energy released by a single lightning boltis greater than the
energy produced in all power plants across the entire America.
• One lightning can light a 100 watt bulb for more than 3 months.
• At the contact point of a lightning to the ground, weather is
warmed up to 25.000oC. The speed of a lightning bolt is 150.000 km per
second and its average thickness is 2.5-5 cm.
• Lightning produces nitrogen molecules that are essential for the
vegetation covering our Earth to sustain its life.
• An average lightning possesses 20.000 ampereof electric power. A
welder uses only 250-400 ampere to weld steel.
• Lightning moves at a speed of 150.000 km per second, that is
almost at half of the speed of lightand it is 100.000 times faster
than sound.
Light released by one lightning is greater than that of 10 million
100-watt light bulbs. That is to say; if every house in Istanbul had a
light a bulb on, illumination from a single lightning bolt would be
greater. Allah announces this glamorous flash of lightning as: "…The
brightness of His lightning almost blinds the sight.." (Surat An-Nur,
43)
How is lightning formed?
Air, warmed by the sunlight rises carrying along the water evaporating
inside it. When this risen air reaches 2-3 km, it comes into contact
with the layers of cold air.
Ice crystals that are formed inside the cloudsat the time of air
rising, release static electric energy formed due to friction. This
electrical energy is loaded positive(+) on top layers of the clouds
and negative (-) on low layers. When the cloud is loaded enough to
ionize the air; lightning is formed.
Why does it thunder?
Lightning heats the air nearby up to 30.000 degrees Celsius in one
millionth of a second. The air warmed up dilates. And it propagates
sound wavesmuch faster than the speed of sound; with a pressure 100
times greater than the normal atmospheric pressure. Similar to the
airplanes crossing the speed of sound, this causes an explosion sound
in the air. And this is named as thunder.
Why does not the light and sound of thunder reach the earth simultaneously?
This is because the sound of thunder reaches us at the speed of sound
(340 m/secondsin air); whereas the visual aspect of the lightning
reaches us at the speed of light (299.793 km/seconds). This causes a
time difference between the two incidents and thus results in the
bolt reaching the earth before the thunder.
What is the difference between lightning and thunderbolt?
When the difference in electric charge becomes greater between the
earth and the cloud, it becomes easier for air tobe pierced and from
earth to the cloud; electrical discharge starts through the conductor
duct formed by the pierced air. The electrical discharge fromthe
clouds is called lightning and the electrical discharge fromthe earth
back to the cloud is called thunderbolt or return stroke.
The fact of lightning declared in the Holy Quran
Surah Ar-Ra'd is one of the chapters in the Quran and it means "TheThunder".
Allah announces that thethunder formed by the lightening repeats His praises:
"The thunder glorifies His praise, as do the angels, out of fear of
Him. …" (Surah Ar-Ra'd, 13)
Strike of lightning reminds us of death
Experiences of those who survived a strike of lightning that causes
thedeath of hundreds of people every year, remind us of death as well
as revealing the helplessness of man in the Presence of Allah.
The possibility of gettingstruck by lightning is one in 700,000; yet
one should not underestimate this possibility as well as the effects
of the lightning. According to the statements made by those who have
been struck by lightning, the electrical current can explode the
buttons and zippers on the clothes and people can faint andfall down.
Due to brain damage, people who have been treated for 1-2 months at
the intensive care divisions of hospitals are having to re-learning
how to walk, how to swallow, or in other words how to live again.
These people have described how they felt, and say it is as if they
"lived death and then were resurrected."
In the Holy Quran, a very similar incident occurredin a strike of
lightning Allah showed to the people of Prophet Moses(as). With a
disgraceful and false courage, the Israelites demanded thatthe Prophet
Moses (as) enable them to see Allah with their own eyes and while
demanding this, they were shown the similar effect of a lightning. The
following statements in the verse "So the thunder-bolt struck you
dead" and "Then We brought you back to life after your death," may be
a sign forthe fact that they felt resurrected after their heart stop
related to the shock as well as the loss of consciousness and loss of
memory they experienced. (Allah knows the best). Here are the related
verses in the Quran:
And when you said, 'Moses, we will not believe in you until we see
Allah with our own eyes.' So the thunder-bolt struck you dead while
you were looking. Then We brought you back to life after your death,
so that perhaps you would show thanks. (Surat al-Baqara, 55-56)
Is urinary incontinence caused by the jinn, and what should he do whenpraying?.
about someone having trouble while making wudoo .I have similar
problem, or even worst. When ever I want to pray I feel gas coming out
of me, if I go to toiletfor urine I spend more than 30 min but urine
and other liquid keep oncoming from my private part during salaat I
have excessive desire to go to toilet, I have to repeat my ablution
again and again this situation is really embarrassing me, it makes
salaat very difficult for me and this really had affect my faith. I am
sure is not a kind of illness because I have seen many doctors but no
improvement, and also this problem comes only when I want to pray.
Some people said it could be a jinn which has entered my body.
Please tell me how can I do my salaat easily, can I pray more than one
salaat with the same wudoo even when thesethings are coming out ofme.
If this is cause by Jinn how can I get ride of it?
Praise be to Allaah.
Urinary incontinence and similar conditions where liquid etc, is
passed involuntarily and one cannot control it, should not be given
any attention, rather the person should pray according to his
situation, even if that liquid etc. is emitted during prayer, because
it is too difficult to avoidit. Allaah says (interpretation of the
meaning):
"and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship"
[al-Hajj 22:78]
But if he fears that his body or clothes may become contaminated, he
should wrap it (i.e. the private part) with a cloth or similar, and
prayafter doing wudoo', and he should not pay attention to anything
that comes out that he cannot control. This is anordinary kind of
sickness, which is very common, and it is not caused by the jinn.
Tahaarah (purity) is essential so you have to renew it (i.e., renew
wudoo') for each obligatory prayer.
