The ruling on interrupting the prayer for ablution due to doubt about ritual purity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, the sister says that she has doubts about her ritual purity, and when she says the opening takbir and enters the prayer, she interrupts the prayer and goes to perform wudu' again.

Answer:
This is not permissible. Do not interrupt the prayer once you have entered it; rather, complete it. Seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan at the beginning to drive it away from you, and do not pay attention to the obsessive doubts. Continue in your worship and perform it, and reject the obsessive doubts, and they will go away from you, with Allah's permission. Yes.
