What is the view of Sheikh Muhammad ibn Uthaymeen on the purity and impurity of human blood, and does he consider ablution invalidated by the emission of a large amount of blood from other than the two excretory passages? And is the difference of opinion regarding the purity of blood permissible? And is it permissible to adopt the view of one who considers it pure if it is not out of personal desire?
