Question

is the hadith which says that wudhu is not broken until the smell is not felt or the sound is not heard, i feel wudhu is broken even if smell or sound doesnt occur. please explain?

Answer

If a person is certain that he has passed wind, then the Wudhu is broken.

The advice in the Hadith is for a person who always experiences doubts. Such a person should follow certainty rather than following doubts.
