Breastfeeding and wudu

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

My wife is breast feeding my child. I wanted to know if breastfeeding invalidates wudhu, as she sometimes prays straight after having fed our daughter.

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

I pray this finds you in the best of health and spirits.

No, breastfeeding doesn’t affect the validity of wudu in any way whatsoever. Rather, wudu is only invalidated by the things mentioned in the following answer:

How is wudu invalidated?

And Allah alone gives success.
