The ruling on the invalidation of wudu' by the exit of a large amount of blood

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is your view on the statement that blood exiting from other than the two private parts does not invalidate wudu', even if it is a large amount, citing the killing of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) during prayer, where he completed his prayer while blood was flowing from his body?

Answer:
Yes, this is a strong opinion that the exit of blood does not invalidate wudu', even if it is a large amount. This is a strong, recommended, and good opinion, because the Companions were wounded in battles and expeditions, and it is not denied that they performed wudu'. The story of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) is famous; when he was stabbed, blood flowed from him, and he completed the prayer. So this is the opinion that blood does not invalidate wudu', even if it is a large amount. But we explain what we have and add to what we have. Yes.
