Does Water Entering the Vaginal Opening and Later Exiting Break the Wudu?

Answered by Shaykh Yusuf Weltch

Question

If water enters the vaginal opening during istinja or swimming and later comes out, does this invalidate wudu? I haven’t found any evidence that it would.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate

No. Water that enters the vaginal opening and later exits does not break the wudu. This is because it is not possible to know for certain that water entered and exited the vagina. [Tahtawi/Shurunbulali, Hashiyat Maraqi al-Falah]

Any moisture that comes out could be the normal colorless discharge of the female or sweat, both of which are pure and do not invalidate the wudu. [Ibid.]

Such things should be ignored as they can lead to misgivings (waswasa) with regard to purification. [Ibid.]

Hope this helps
Allah knows best
