Ruling on the invalidation of wudu' by cupping
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q59: The questioner asks: What is cupping? What is its ruling? Does performing it invalidate wudu' and break the fast of one who is fasting, or not?
A59: Cupping is a type of treatment, involving the extraction of blood using a cupping vessel. It breaks the fast of one who is fasting, according to the correct opinion among the scholars; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Therefore, cupping
breaks the fast of one who is fasting, according to the correct opinion among the scholars; because of this hadith and others. Likewise, it invalidates wudu' if a large amount of blood is drawn by it.
