Q429: Tissue in Salaah

Question

Can you hold a Tissue in salaah when you have a cold/flu?

Answer

A tissue may be used in Salaah, as long as it is being used with one hand. It doesn’t necessarily have to be held; it can be removed from ones pocket and then be used but again all with the use of just one hand. Otherwise, if one were to use both hands then namaaz will break due to excessive unnecessary movement in Namaaz.
