The ruling on one who finds chewing gum on his foot after prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: When I finished my prayer, I found a type of chewing gum on my foot. He asks: Do I have to repeat my prayer?

Answer:
By Allah, if the gum got on you after you performed wudu, there is no harm. But if you do not know whether it was before or after the wudu, you must remove it, perform wudu again, and repeat the prayer. Yes.
