Can you do wudhu with all-day contact lenses that are hard to take out?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftisays.com
Assalam0alikium
actually my eyes sight is weak and even with glasses i can’t see properly so doctor have suggested to wear contact lenses that make my vision clear. lenses are weared at the start of the day and removed when i get to bed late night, so they are in my eyes whole day even when i do wudhu.
my question is that when i do wudhu while wearing lenses, is it permissible and my wudhu is completed or not?
one more information for you that lenses are not very easily removed and weared.
i know washing face is farz in wudhu and whole face should be wet, is that means eyes from inside should be wet as well? please guide me.
Wsalam

Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

Your Wudhu is completed. It is not Fard to wash the inner part of the eye.

Allah Ta’ala says,

“O Believers, when you rise to pray wash your faces and your hands as far as the elbow, and wipe your heads and (wash) your feet to the ankle.” (5:6)

Hence, anything that prevents the Fard of Wudhu i.e. make-up, nail varnish, wig, hat, shoes etc, will make the Wudhu incomplete.

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
