IRSYAD HUKUM SIRI KE-795: STATUS WUDUK PESAKIT “CYSTOCELE “
Is the ablution of a woman with cystocele invalidated when her bladder protrudes from the vagina, and is she treated like someone in a constant state of ritual impurity?
Short answer
The ruling depends on the condition of the bladder. If it is usually inside and then protrudes beyond the outer part of the vagina after ablution, the ablution is invalidated and must be renewed.

Summary
The ruling depends on the condition of the bladder. If it is usually inside and then protrudes beyond the outer part of the vagina after ablution, the ablution is invalidated and must be renewed. If the patient has tried to push it back but it remains permanently outside, she is not considered to be carrying impurity and her ablution stays valid. The fatwa states that urine inside the bladder is still regarded as being within an inner organ as long as it does not leave the bladder.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Sekiranya ia kebiasaannya berada di dalam kemudian terkeluar daripada faraj selepas mengambil wuduk, maka ia membatalkan wuduk. Namun sekiranya telah berusaha memasukkan semula dan sentiasa berada diluar, maka ia tidak dianggap menanggung najis.
