The questioner : Does the flow of blood from a wound invalidate the ablution, or is it permissible to purify the limb from which the blood came? We ask for your guidance. May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : The correct view is that blood coming from other than the two private parts does not invalidate the ablution, whether it comes from the nose as a nosebleed, from a wound, or from a deliberate blood test by a person. All of this does not invalidate the ablution, whether it is a small amount or a large amount. This is the stronger position, due to the lack of evidence for invalidation. Invalidation is a legal ruling that requires evidence. The ablution has been established by virtue of a legal evidence, and what is established by virtue of a legal evidence is not lifted except by a legal evidence. There is no legal evidence indicating that the ablution is invalidated by the exit of something from the body other than the two private parts, whether it is blood, pus, or vomit. As long as it is from other than the two private parts, it does not invalidate, neither its small amount nor its large amount. However, if it comes from a limb and is a large amount, he washes it, as mentioned in the authentic hadith:. Yes.

That Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) used to wash the blood from the face of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when he was wounded in the Battle of Uhud.
