From
Harpers comes this article with some excerpts from "A Clarification of Questions," by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. A few examples:
107. The whole body of an infidel, even the hair, the nails, and its wetness, is unclean.
125. When a clean object touches an unclean object and one or both are wet enough to convey that wetness to the other, then the clean object becomes unclean. But if the wetness is not enough to reach the other, the clean object does not become unclean.
145. If a host, while eating, realizes that the food is unclean, he must inform his guests. But if one of the guests realizes this, it is not necessary to inform the others, unless his relations with the others are such that as a result of remaining silent he himself becomes unclean.
464. If a woman begins menstruating while praying, her prayer is void.
Sheesh -- did this guy have "issues" or what...
