Does passing wind sometimes during ablution and prayer affect them?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the emission of gas is intermittent and not continuous, then the Muslim must wait for it to stop before performing ablution and prayer individually. If gas is emitted during ablution, it invalidates it, and ablution must be redone. If it is emitted during prayer, the prayer is invalidated, and one must exit it, then perform ablution and repeat the prayer.
