What is the ruling on the ablution of a woman who suffers from gonorrhea (constant discharge of fluid from the vaginal area)? And is her condition considered a continuous state of impurity that necessitates ablution with each new prayer time?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The continuous discharge that exits from a woman's front (vaginal wetness) is pure according to the preponderant opinion, but it nullifies ablution (Wudu') according to the majority of scholars. A woman afflicted by this should perform Wudu' for each prayer after its time has begun, and with that ablution, she can pray the obligatory (fard) prayer and as many supererogatory (nafl) prayers as she wishes.
