Summary
The obligatory bath and the prayer are valid when the dried blood on the finger is small and does not stop water from reaching the skin. The obligatory elements of the bath include making the intention when first washing the body and spreading water over all outer parts of the body. Anything that can block water from reaching the body, such as dirt, wax, gum or fish scales, must be removed.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Oleh kerana darah pada jari itu sedikit dan tidak menghalang air daripada terkena kulit, maka sah mandi wajib dan sah solatnya.
