The ruling on the ablution of one who applied olive oil before performing wudu'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Another message has arrived from Nur al-Huda, and it says in this question: A woman applied olive oil to her hair, then performed wudu' immediately afterward. What is the ruling on this wudu'?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, because the oil does not prevent the water from reaching the skin. So there is no harm in a person applying oil to his skin and then performing wudu'. Yes.
