More on Cleaning Babies

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Hamza Karamali, SunniPath Academy Teacher

Is touching the baby’s private parts with a diaper wipe like touching it with your fingers, or does the cloth act as a barrier between your hands and the baby’s body?

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

In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate

There must be skin-to-skin contact for one’s wudu to be invalidated.  As such, using a diaper wipe or wearing gloves would prevent one’s wudu from being invalidated.

And Allah knows best.

Hamza.
