Fatwa #335422 June 2001United Kingdom

I put oil in my head and beard. I then do wudu. Is the wudu valid as my face is oily?

Question

Similarly if I have to do ghusl, would that be valid as parts of my body would be oily? How did the Prophet (peace be upon him) deal with this issue of oil?

Answer

The Wudhu and Ghusl will be valid.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
