Question Summary:
Does the breaking of wudhu nullify ghusl

Question Detail:

Salam, if I am doing gusl and then wudu breaks then do I have to start gusl again or should I continue with gusl?

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

If one is performing ghusl and his/her wudhu breaks, one will continue performing the ghusl and will not have to re-start the ghusl. [1]

أَرَأَيْت رجلا تَوَضَّأ ثمَّ خرج من ذكره بَوْل هَل يجب عَلَيْهِ الْوضُوء قَالَ نعم

أَلا ترى أَنه لَو خرج من دبره ريح أعَاد الْوضُوء
