Ruling on the tawaf of one whose wound has bled
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: During my tawaf, I suffered a wound from which blood flowed. Does this affect me?
Answer: The stronger view is that it does not affect you, if Allah wills, and your tawaf is valid. This is because there is scholarly disagreement regarding whether blood flowing from a wound invalidates the wudu' or not. There is no clear evidence that it invalidates the wudu', especially if the blood is small in amount, in which case it does not cause harm. In any case, the correct position in this matter is the validity of the tawaf, since the original state is the validity of the tawaf, and its invalidity is doubtful, and the disagreement regarding it is well known. Therefore, the best is the safety and validity of the tawaf. This is the original state, and this is the stronger view.
