How can I determine conclusively whether I am in need of fresh wudu if I suspect I have broken wind
Question
How can I determine conclusively whether I am in need of fresh wudu if I suspect I have broken wind even if I did not hear anything and am in doubt if what I smell is due to passing wind, although sometimes I may feel slight heat & pressure if it occurs while sitting down.
Answer
If a person has Wudhu, the Wudhu will be considered intact until the sound of passing wind or its smell. (Hadith)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
