Does Mosquito Blood Cancel Wudhu? Here's The Study (2025)

Share:

WUDhu is one of the legal requirements for praying in Islam. However, sometimes we don't realize things that can cancel ablution, just like mosquito blood. So, does mosquito blood cancel ablution?

If blood becomes clearly unclean and can cancel ablution, many people are confused if they kill mosquitoes to cause blood. Confused, come on, see the explanation in this article!

Reporting from the NU Online page, in the book al-Majmu' Syarah al-Muhadzdzab, Imam al-Nawawi explains about the blood of mosquitoes or ticks that hit a person's clothes or body.

Imam al-Nawawi quoted al-Mutawalli's opinion detailing the law: if there is a lot of blood, then it cannot be tolerated and is considered unclean. However, if there are only a few, there are differences of opinion among the ulama. The strongest opinion is that the blood is forgiven and does not cancel the ablution.

Furthermore, Imam al-Nawawi also explained about someone praying with clothes or cloth exposed to mosquito blood. If there is a lot of blood, then the prayers are invalid. However, if there are only a few, there are differences of opinion among scholars.

In line with Imam Nawawi, Imam Khatib Syarbini, quoted from the Malaysian Prime Minister's Department, also argued that the blood of small animals such as mosquitoes, flies, and ticks, which are generally difficult to avoid, is included in the category of unclean forgiveness. This is due to the small amount and invisible.

So, how do you define many and few boundaries in this context? The ulama do not set rigid boundaries in fiqh books. However, in general, the benchmark used is the custom of the local community. That is, something is considered a lot if according to the custom of the general public, it is considered a lot, and vice versa.

Meanwhile, in Hanafi's mazhab, Al-Kasani provides an interesting view. He said that slightly unclean is unclean that is difficult or even impossible to avoid or eliminate. If this little unclean is not forgiven, it will certainly burden Muslims in carrying out worship.

This opinion is in line with the basic principles in Islamic law, namely taysir wa raf'ul haraj, which means ease and eliminate difficulties. Allah SWT obeys in the Qur'an:

Why don't you think about it? Let's take care of it, let's take care of it, let's take care of it, let's take care of it, let's take care of it.

"God wants convenience for you, and doesn't want trouble for you." (QS. Al-Baqarah: 185)

Let's take care of it, let's take care of it, let's take care of it, let's take care of it.

"...and he never made it for you in a religion of narrowness." (QS. Al-Hajj: 78)

Based on the description above, it is known that the scholars have different opinions regarding the law of prayer with clothes exposed to mosquito blood. Some argue it is legal, while some do not.

However, the majority of ulama are of the view that prayer is invalid if the blood of mosquitoes attached to clothes is classified as large. On the other hand, if it is only a few, then prayer remains valid.

The determination of many or at least mosquito blood is returned to the customs and assessments of the local community. This means that there is no definite limit regarding the size of the large or at least the blood of the mosquito.

Therefore, to maintain solemnity and calm in worship, it is highly recommended to ensure that the clothes to be used in prayer are completely clean from unclean, including mosquito blood.

In addition, when praying, you should avoid hitting mosquitoes so as not to leave blood stains on clothes. Thus, we can pray more calmly and confidently that our worship is accepted by Allah SWT.
