[Q 348] Wudu and Vaginal Discharge Guidelines

Question

The normal daily discharge which women get from their front passage, does this nullify wudu?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب بعون الملك الوهاب اللهم هداية الحق والصواب

Answer

The white vaginal discharge of a woman that doesn’t contain any blood does not nullify Wudu and neither does it filthy one’s clothes.
If the discharge does contain blood, then it will be considered filthy and its discharge will nullify Wudu.

Allamah Amjad Ali A’dhami explains in Bahar-e-Shariat:
A woman’s clear, vaginal discharge that contains no blood does not nullify Wudu. If it gets onto her clothes, her clothes will remain clean.
