What Nullifies Ablution

Hadith #148

148 - وَ رَوَى غَيْرُهُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَبُولُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَنْجِي ثُمَّ يَرَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بَلَلاً «أَنَّهُ إِذَا بَالَ فَخَرَطَ مَا بَيْنَ اَلْمَقْعَدَةِ وَ اَلْأُنْثَيَيْنِ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ غَمَزَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا ثُمَّ اِسْتَنْجَى فَإِنْ سَالَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ اَلسُّوقَ فَلاَ يُبَالِي.

Hadith.148 - Another narration (by Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq ) states: In the case of a man who urinates, performs istinja (cleansing of private parts), and then notices wetness afterward: 'If he, after urinating, presses the area between the anus and the testicles three times and massages it, then performs istinja, he need not worry even if wetness flows down to his thighs.'.

If a man touches the inner part of his anus or the inner part of his urethra, he must repeat his ablution; if he does so during prayer, he should interrupt the prayer, perform ablution, and repeat the prayer. Additionally, if he opens his urethra, he must redo his ablution and prayer. However, if someone uses an enema or carries something impure [such as filth], he is not required to redo his ablution even if it exits from him, unless it is mixed with feces, in which case he must perform istinja (cleaning the private parts) and redo the ablution.
