Is the wudu' of a woman valid with the presence of henna (nail polish) on her nails?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This woman is also asking about what is called by women "henna," which is like nail polish that they put on their nails. Is it permissible to perform wudu' while this is on the woman's nails?

Answer:
Whatever solidifies on the nails or on the hair and prevents the water from reaching them, it is not permissible for the woman. As for whatever does not solidify and does not prevent the water from reaching the nail or the skin, there is no harm in using it. Yes.
