Question

Does inserting a tampon break ones wudhu?

If I am a major due to istihadha, and I insert a tampon before wudhu then wear khufain, is masah on the khufain valid for the entire salaah duration or do I have to remove it and wash feet each salaah time?

Answer

Just inserting it only does not break the wudhu.

You may make masah like any other normal person does for the entire duration.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

“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…”
