The ruling on praying in a garment with blood on it covering an area of two centimeters

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you. After that, what is the ruling if a small amount of blood comes out of a finger and falls on a garment in the shape of a circle with a diameter of two centimeters? Is the prayer in this garment valid or invalid? May Allah bless you.

Answer:
As for the area he mentioned, it is a large amount. Two centimeters is more than the three drops that most scholars have defined as a large amount of blood, although there is disagreement among them regarding the impurity or purity of blood. However, according to the view that it is impure, he is required to repeat the prayer; he is required to wash it and is required to repeat the prayer. But the general evidence does not support the view that it is impure. Nevertheless, the precaution is to hasten to wash it and purify the garment from it.
