Bleeding during the
prayer

Q72 :What can one do if he bleeds through the nose
during prayer? Should he continue or not?


A72 : Some scholars, particularly of the Hanafi
school of thought, consider bleeding as one of the things that
invalidate ablutions. Their verdict on what should the person do if he
bleeds in prayer is very detailed, and they relate some of these
details to the amount of blood that is discharged. However, there does
not seem to be any evidence to support this view. The evidence is more
on the side of the view that bleeding does not invalidate ablutions.
When Umar was stabbed in prayer, he resumed praying although he had
lost much of his blood. No one of the Prophet’s netpanions objected to
what he did.
