Wudhu

Small white pimples

Q: Sometimes I have these white things on my face, like bubbles with white pus inside. They come for few days and go. What I noticed happening is some of them I see before sleeping and not anymore when I make wudu for fajr.

1. Does it mean they exploded during a night, because obviously then cant dry and fall out as a dry skin during a night and does it mean my pillowcase has to be changed, my face and hair has to be washed, is it all najasa?

2. I think many people can have them in different places of their bodies, back, leg, hips, etc. do we have to check and track their condition all the time to see if we r in najasa or can just forget in shaa Allah? Example I had a pain on my back knowing its from a red spot that can have pus in it, must I stand and check if there is a pus in the middle of a nap to see what is the condition in the morning, should I bath or no if I see no pus in the morning?

3. Does explosion of this pus break wudu?

4. Sometimes this pus inside is not liquid but hard, may be its other kind of spots, I don’t know, but would like to ask if I scratch that hard ball (pus) out of its place, does wudu break?

Discharge

Q: I have sometimes frequent discharges. Once I found it out that there was nothing on my pad, but with a mirror I saw the discharge exiting the private part. Other time after wudu I took a mirror to check and saw inside white liquid discharge that was about to flow out, meaning had I not check it and made salah immediately after wudu I would make it with discharge out of the private parts. I have some questions here.

1. If I suspect the discharge to be in contact with my pad because it is at the edge of vagina, even if the discharge didn’t have time to fall to the pad – can I consider the pad clean or have to change it for salah?

2. After those episodes above, even if I see my pad clean sometimes I always have doubts if the discharge is at the edge of my vagina or even exited it. Do I have to really walk with a mirror and check it in my situation or what is the ruling here?

3. If I made my wudu and feel some movements in vagina like air or discharge, but not sure, do I have to take a mirror and check or can ignore? I am afraid that my salah will be void. By the way, is air coming from vagina breaking wudu?

4. If I check myself with a mirror and see some discharge is inside but not yet out, but about too. If I make my salah, do I have to check after salah if the discharge is out and I need to redo my salah?

5. As in 4. when I see discharge is about to flow I skip sunnas (except fajr), because I am the only Muslim at home and I don’t want my non-Muslim family to say that I spend a lot of time in toilet and only worshipping Allah. Is it ok in shaa Allah or I am trying to escape Allah’s test?

Masah on socks

Q: Can you please let me know can I wipe (masah) over normal socks? Not leather one's because im in Kuwait here most of the people do this. If it's not permissible, can I perform namaz behind them or should I perform individually? Please give me a clear answer.

Masah of the head

Q: I am asking that not long ago I found out that while doing wudu at the end when you do masah, I used to wash my ears first then wash my hair couple of times and I found out the real order and started doing it like the order you really should. So I'm asking that I'm not sure what's the ruling on that because some people say it's okay if you didn't know but now I'm sending this question to you because I really want to know?

Flowing blood

Q: I counted my period to be over close to fajr, so I was making my ghusl early in the morning. Before ghusl I squeezed a spot on my body knowing it will bleed a bit. Indeed I saw blood which wasn’t really flowing but was there on the top of the little wound, I applied a napkin on the wound and blood was seen on it afterwards. Few minutes after I started making ghusl, immediately I can say. At the end of ghusl I somehow scratched the wound a bit and probably some blood gathered on the top again and may be flew, but because of water it wasn’t visible. When I finished ghusl I applied napkin again and saw again a little spot of blood on it. I washed that area, applied new napkin so that my clothes are secured from blood and made new wudu and made my isha and with with the same wudu. Fajr starts at 06:26 and I finished my witr at 6:28. Now please let me ask my questions as they are in my head, so that I in shaa Allah can use the knowledge for the future, because I can misunderstand your answer and be wrong in my worship to Allah.

1. If I have a wound that is fresh and blood is flowing – must I wait for it to dry or can continue with my wudu and salah even if I have time to wait? What if I don't have time? Is applying plaster or a napkin to secure clothes clean from blood really necessary? What if I don’t have a napkin or wound is on such a spot of the body where napkin won’t be attached to or I have no plaster with me, what should I do if obviously blood will flow out of the wound if I dab the wound during wudu or salah and my clothes can become najis too? Please explain me how serious is covering the wound if you have plaster and if you have not, is it necessary or not really, how serious is to wait till blood dries if you have time or if you don’t have time.

2. I have the same question for the situation when blood is not flowing but is only seen on the wound and the skin near it, it will be removed only if you dab it. Is the ruling the same here as in question number 1?

3. In both cases above what can be done with one wudu, sunna and fard salahs of the current time or also two fard salah, for example current asr and then next magrib not renewing wudu? Sometimes you can be out and don’t have possibilities to make new wudu or you are in the meeting. What must you do?

4. I have some qazas to repay, in cases described in question 1 and question 2, can I be making my qazas after a current fard salah all with the same wudu or have to renew it everytime or even wait till blood dries?

5. And finally with all my explanation above how I made ghusl and wudu, how late I was for witr and that I did my isha and witr with the same wudu – is my ghusl and witr valid in shaa Allah?

Wound bleeding after ghusl

Q: I had a small cut on my body and small amount of blood was flowing from it. I had to take fardh (compulsory) bath. I tried to stop this flow of blood but could not during taking bath. After completion of bath blood stopped flowing. Is my bath valid or not?
