Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
i know that the haith re passing wind says that you assume no wind passed unless you hear or smell it today during the farz of isha, i had grumblings in my stomach and also there was a small noise. HOWEVER, i was pretty confident that i didnt pass any wind from my backside and the noise could have been internal stomach grumblings, a joint cracking or the floorboards and didnt sound much like a fart at all given that certainty isnt lifted by doubt, i put this down to waswasah and carried on with salah, sunnahs and witr. Was this correct or should i re-read isha and witr on the basis that the noise may have been a fart (although i dont think it was on balance)
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
The hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is telling us that unless certain that one has actually passed wind, one must assume that one hasn’t. What you did was correct.
And Allah alone gives success.
