Is it permissible to adopt the view of those who consider natural discharges not to invalidate ablution, despite the existence of other views that consider them to invalidate it? And does adopting this view result in sin or the non-acceptance of prayer?

Vaginal discharge invalidates ablution according to the majority of jurists, and this is the relied-upon opinion for fatwas. However, for a woman afflicted with continuous discharge, her ablution is not invalidated according to Imam Malik, and there is no harm in adopting this view, especially when there is a need.
