Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Does touching one's wife without desire invalidate the ablution?

Answer:
Yes. Some scholars hold that mere touching, or rather, touching a woman, invalidates the ablution. This is the view of the Maliki school. As for the Hanbali school, touching a woman with desire is what invalidates it. Yes.
