Hi, I have a question regarding scabs and dried skin and its effect on the validity of ghusl. Would a scab or dried skin be considered a barrier in ghusl? As I noticed a scab during ghusl I tried removing it by scraping it off however it didn’t come off. A few hours later I tried again this time it did come off. So would I have to rewash/do ghusl again? Also, if it was dried skin that came off after ghusl would I have to rewash/do ghusl again?



بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب حامداومصليا

This will not prevent the Ghusl from being valid. Therefore, your Ghusl will be valid.

And Allah knows best
