What is the ruling on one who has blood coming from his mouth during wudu? Does he continue with the wudu or wait for the blood to stop? The same applies to nosebleeds.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: May the Shaykh be respected, I have a gum disease, and whenever I want to perform wudu, after rinsing my mouth, blood comes from my gums. Is it obligatory for me to stop the blood first, or should I continue with the wudu? The same applies to nosebleeds. Please advise me. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : Yes, we say: Complete the wudu. The blood does not harm you and does not invalidate your wudu, no matter how much it is.
But I advise the brother who asked, and I ask Allah for his recovery, that he consult doctors. For a person is commanded to seek medical treatment, provided he does not treat himself with what is forbidden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan al-Bayhaqi 17:517 The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of this not just so we would be aware of this statement, but so that we would strive for what brings healing? Answer, everyone. The second point, without a doubt, if the Messenger informs us of a report, it does not mean merely that we know it, but that we act in accordance with it. And likewise, it was reported from him: Sunan Abi Dawud 3874Da'if (Al-Albani)

Do not despair. Yes.

Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has sent down for it a cure. He who knows it knows it, and he who does not know it does not know it.
ما أنزل الله داء إلا وأنزل له شفاء علمه من علمه وجهله من جهلهso treat yourselves medically, but use nothing unlawful
أيها الناس تداووا ولا تداووا بحرامSo we say to the brother: Consult doctors, perhaps Allah the Exalted will find a cure for you that has not yet reached its time. Often a person undergoes many treatments, but Allah does not decree the cure until a specific time that has not yet come. Allah Blessed and Exalted is He said:
