The Validity of Prayer
A woman applied artificial nails with strong adhesive, and she was unable to remove them for ablution before a day had passed since they were applied. What is the ruling on her prayers during this period?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is necessary for the water to reach the original nail or skin; if it does not reach, the ablution is invalid, and she must repeat those prayers. And God knows best.
