Does kissing the wife invalidate Wudhu?

Question

If I & my wife are in Wudhu, and if we kiss each other does the Wudhu is broken, Do we have to make Wudhu again?

Answer

According to the Hanafi Madh-hab, The husband and wife kissing each other does not invalidate the Wudhu unless impure substances were emitted from the private parts due to arousal. If Mazi (pre coital fluid) was emitted, the Wudhu will become invalid. If Mani (semen) was ejaculated, Ghusl will become Fardh. The Wudhu of the female will become invalid in this situation if she secretes Qazy (the fluids secreted due to arousal). (al-Fatawa al-Hindiyyah)

And Allah Knows Best

What breaks wudhu?

“If one laughs aloud during salaah, his salaah and wudu will break. In the state of hadath it is not permissible to touch the Quraan Majeed. Hence, if one's wudu breaks through laughing aloud in salaah, it will not be permissible…”
