Ghusal for a woman with a contraceptive patch

· 2 Dhuʻl-Hijjah 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If a woman was using the patch as means of contraception for a whole year and didn't realize her ghusl isn't completed because the patch is impermeable to water:

1. Does she have to perform qadha of all her salaah and fardh saum?

2. Is her recitation of Qur-aan and khatams accepted?

Answer

If it is used as a treatment and can't be removed then the ghusl was valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
