Does Fart Break Wudu?

Published in Islam 1 min read

Yes, farting breaks wudu.

Wudu, also known as ablution, is a ritual purification required in Islam before performing certain acts of worship, such as prayer (Salah).

The emission of gas from the anus, whether intentionally or unintentionally, breaks wudu. This is because it is considered an impurity that requires cleansing.

Here are some key points to remember:

  • Wudu must be renewed after farting.
  • The act of farting itself breaks wudu, regardless of the volume or smell.
  • Wudu is broken even if the gas is released unintentionally.

To regain wudu after farting, you must perform the following steps:

  1. Wash your hands.
  2. Clean the area of the body where the gas was released.
  3. Perform the full wudu procedure.

This is a fundamental aspect of Islamic practice and ensures the cleanliness and purity required for worship.
