Why do Females’ wuzu break when they go to sleep in sajdah while Males’ wuzu is not broken?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalamualaikum 1-When Females go to sleep in sajdah why does there wuzu break and Males go to sleep in sajdah why isnt there wuzu broken,whats the reason?

Answer

(Fatwa: 707/707=M/1430)

The reason is that when a woman performs sajdah, her arms are rested on her stomach and thighs. This condition causes loosening of joints and it makes passing of wind more probable, so this will invalidate her wudhu. On the other hand, the condition of sajdah for men is different. Therefore, the ruling is different.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
