Is a person considered to have lost consciousness in sleep if he answers someone calling him, knowing that light sleep is when a person hears a sound near him?
If a sleeping person can hear sounds, then his sleep is light and does not invalidate ablution. However, if he completely loses awareness, then his ablution is invalidated. If he doubts whether his ablution was invalidated or not, he should refer to the original state, which is purity.
