Does the ablution of one who suffers from urinary incontinence and slight seminal discharge become void after sunrise if he performed ablution before sunrise?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The majority of Hanbalis, Shafi'is, and the jurists of opinion (Ahl al-Ra'y) hold that a woman experiencing irregular vaginal bleeding (mustahadah) and a person suffering from urinary incontinence ( سلس البول ) must perform ablution (wudu') for each prayer. Their ablution becomes invalid when the time for that prayer exits. Accordingly, if a person with urinary incontinence wishes to pray the Duha prayer, they must perform ablution after sunrise, and their ablution performed before sunrise will not suffice.
