Q&A⚖️ Fiqh & Law

Can a woman perform wudhu whilst wearing "halal friendly" nail polish, whilst they state that water permeates through, but I do not have certainty that water reaches all areas under the nail polish?

Answer

One must ascertain that water reaches all areas necessary for Wudhu, this may not occur completely if one has the nails covered with nail polish, and with any uncertainty and doubt then one must remove the polish before performing Wudhu.
