Are ablution and prayer sufficient if a small amount of eye discharge is found in the eye after the prayer and its time has passed?

If there is a small speck (qadha) in the eye that does not prevent water from reaching the skin, then the prayer is valid and does not need to be repeated. However, if it does prevent water from reaching, then ablution (wudu) is not sufficient with it, and the prayer must be repeated, unless it is probable that the speck appeared after the ablution due to the long time elapsed, given that the hand was passed over its location when washing the face; in that case, the prayer is valid.

Al-Nawawi said: "As for the corners of the eyes, they are to be washed without dispute. If there is a speck on them that prevents water from reaching the obligatory part of the face, then it must be wiped away and what is beneath it washed. Otherwise, wiping them is recommended."

In Hashiyat al-Dusuqi: "It is obligatory for the person performing ablution, when washing his face, to remove any speck from his eyes. If he finds some speck in his eyes after his ablution and its occurrence is possible due to the passage of time, it is attributed to recent appearance if he passed his hand over its location when washing his face."

Ibn Taymiyyah chose the view that slight dirt that prevents water from reaching is excused in any part of the body, by analogy with the slight dirt under the fingernails. Accordingly, if the speck was present during ablution and was slight, then the prayer is valid.
