Dry matter emerging from blackheads

· 28 Rabiʻ I 1444 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Does pressing out dried pus (as when pressing out black/white-heads) break the Wudhu? However, blood does not emerge with it.

Answer

If dry pus is seen attached to the black-head, then Wudhu will not be nullified. However, if the pus is in flowing form, then Wudhu will be nullified.
