What To Do if Wudu Breaks During Prayer (Due to Farting or Other Reasons)​

Maintaining Wudu (ablution) is very important for the validity of prayer. If Wudu is broken during prayer, the salah will not be valid anymore.

What to Do If Wudu Breaks During Prayer?​

If you break your Wudu during the prayer, whether by passing wind or any other reason, you should leave the prayer, perform Wudu again, and then restart the prayer from the beginning. This view is supported by the majority of scholars.

Evidence​

  • Hadith of Ali ibn Talq: Abu Dawud (205) narrates from Ali ibn Talq that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “If one of you breaks wind whilst praying, let him leave and do Wudu, then repeat the prayer.” This Hadith supports the view that the prayer must be started over after renewing Wudu.
The majority opinion is that breaking Wudu invalidates the prayer, necessitating the renewal of Wudu and restarting the prayer. Following this approach ensures the validity of your prayer according to Islamic teachings.

And Allah knows best.
 
But remember brothers and sisters, there are 8 things that break your wudu:

Eight things break Wudhu. They are called Nawaaqidh-e-Wudhu (breakers of
Wudhu). They are:
1. Discharging of urine, stool or the coming out of anything from the
private parts.
2. Discharge of gases
3. Vomitting mouthful
4. To fall asleep lying down or by resting the body against something.
5. To faint due to some illness of any other reason.
6. Becoming insane or going mad.
7. Laughing aloud whilst in Salaat.
8. Flowing of blood or matter from any part of the body.

All ham due to Allah
 
I can't imagine a roomful of people bending over like that and not farting.
 
Allah is such a humorless interpretation of the Abrahamic God. Even the Jewish version has a better sense of humor.

As the Ayatollah once said:

Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious. Islam does not allow swimming in the sea and is opposed to radio and television serials.
