Breaking the Ablution by Wind Passing from the Front Passage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Sometimes wind comes out of her front passage. Does this wind invalidate the ablution?

Answer:
Yes, as long as it comes out of the private parts, whatever comes out of the private parts, whether the front or the back, invalidates the ablution. I recall that a fatwa was issued by the Permanent Committee. I did not sign it; they hold that if the wind comes from the front passage, it does not invalidate the ablution. However, this is subject to scrutiny. It is obligatory that whatever comes out of the two passages invalidates the ablution.
