Is Vomit Size the Key to Impurity?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I was talking to my brother about my situation regarding my nephew’s vomit and he told me that if a vomit which is more than mouthful falls on anything that makes it impure if it is more than the inner palm circle. If the vomit was less than moutfull and the baby vomited 100 times on the same matress and no matter how many stains their are on the mattress it would not be considered impure. Is this true?

Bismillaah

A: If the child vomits a mouthful it will be impure and if he vomits less than a mouthful, it will not be impure.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
