Does Leucorrhea Affect Wudu and Prayer for Women?

Understanding Wudu and Prayer in the Context of Leucorrhea

Question: If a woman experiences leucorrhea during prayer, does it break her wudu, and does it affect her prayer?

Answer: A woman suffering from a chronic leucorrhea condition should perform wudu before every prayer, and this wudu will be valid for that prayer time. The prayer will not be affected if discharge occurs during the prayer. However, if a woman does not have a chronic condition and experiences occasional discharge, such as during prayer, this will invalidate her wudu, and she will need to perform wudu again and repeat the prayer. While leucorrhea itself is considered clean, it breaks wudu.
