Bleeding only during each wudu!

[Al-Faruqi]

If my wound is a wound that only bleeds when water falls on it (during wudu) am I also Ma’dhur?

I often have wounds at the hands who occur by the cold winter time or otherwise, each time I put water on it it opens and bleeds, but after that it stops again. Then try to start wudu again and it opens again.

Will I be classified as ma'dhur in this case?

How should I handle this?

Assalamu alaikum brother Faruqi,
Is this bleeding where the blood actually begins to flow or more like if a tissue was put on the cut then blood will come on it but it doesn't actually flow.

Assalamu alaikum brother Faruqi,
Is this bleeding where the blood actually begins to flow or more like if a tissue was put on the cut then blood will come on it but it doesn't actually flow.

It is usually a small wound, often I can not see it actually flowing around but yes if I put a tissue on it then the tissue would become red (a red dot).

I don't know if I'm right at this, but I think that if there is a wound which doesn't actually flow but I put water on it then it would flow away, even if I can't notice it because it is not enough blood there to see it in the water changing its color.
Is this a correct assumption?

This problem with bleeding wounds really annoying for me because I still don't know all the rulings on it, so I keep waiting and delaying prayers all the time because I sometimes don't know if am ma'dhur or not.

for your help.

Assalamu alaikum brother,
The way you are describing the wound it seems as though most probably your wudu will not break - but I will ask someone who knows for sure to be certain. The reason I am saying this is because it seems to be that the blood from the wound is incapable of flowing for the following reasons:
i) it is a small wound
ii) it is not very deep at all (in fact I think even your entire skin has not been penetrated but rather the upper part of the skin).

Wudu does not break from a s****e even if the blood can and does come onto the tissue - as far as I know.
And also you are saying that you cannot see that the blood flowing away - so how can you be certain that it is flowing. Whatever the case your wound does not seem to bleed like "flowing" in my opinion. I will ask around though.

Brother, did you already ask your local scholar?

Assalamu alaikum brother,
I did. He said that it will not break because the blood is not flowing by itself but rather the water is making the blood "flow" by washing it away. Also I believe I asked this question to some ulema before and I did some research (by asking) and I made a note in my fiqh notes that if a person spreads non-flowing blood from a s c r a p e wound with his finger then the wudu will not break because the blood itself is not flowing. Therefore if the blood is spread by the water I don't see why wudu will break because the blood is not flowing. Hope this helps brother. If anyone recognizes any mistake here they can correct it.

Assalamu alaikum brother,
I don't think you should have any doubts (waswas) regarding this. The blood you described is clearly not flowing blood. Only flowing blood breaks wudu.

[Al-Faruqi]

Not that I wouldn't trust you brother, but if possible I'd just like to have a confirmation from any of the respected onboard scholars, so that no place for doubt is left

nevertheless for your precious help!

Assalamu alaikum,
No problem brother.
