Difficulties to Keep Purity During Prayer [Woman]

Answered by Ustadh Tabraze Azam
Question: Assalamu Alaikum.
I am convinced that all my prayers are invalid cause my Wudu is always broken. 99% of the time a small amount of urine comes out & 85% of the time discharge comes out. It feels like I have abandoned prayer . I never repeat my prayers or Wudu because I act likeI am considered Mazur(excused) when I’m sure I’m not. What should I do?
Answer: Wa alaikum assalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
I pray that you are in the best of health and faith, insha’Allah.
[1] After you’ve relieved yourself, wait a little, then clean yourself and sprinkle some water on your private part and your underwear. Don’t stare, check, investigate, or do anything else. Perform wudu and pray. Ignore all feelings and sensations.
[2] Clear vaginal discharge is pure and does not invalidate your wudu.
Make much supplication asking Allah to free you from the difficulty. Trials and difficulties can be blessings in disguise and a means of raising in degrees, if the response is right.
I’d advise taking this class: Absolute Essentials of Islam: Beliefs & Worship (STEP)

And Allah alone gives success.
