Minor Nosebleed and the Effect of Blood on the Garment
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A nosebleed occurred, O Shaykh.
Answer:
A minor nosebleed does not invalidate the wudu' (ablution) because the hadith reporting otherwise is weak. If it is minor, it does not invalidate the wudu'. If it is heavy, one exits the prayer, but if it is merely a slight trickle, it does not break the prayer; one continues in it. Yes. It remains larger. Hm? It does no harm. If he washes it and a color remains that he is unable to remove, it does no harm, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the woman:
A nosebleed occurred, O Shaykh.
