Question and answer [link]

Question 44

Do substances that get on the hand, such as ink or ballpoint-pen marks, count as a barrier that makes wudu invalid? More generally, how can one tell whether something is a barrier? Do nail polish and cosmetics used by women count as barriers? What about oil used on the hair or face and similar substances?

Ahmed al-Hasan Response:

Anything that prevents water from reaching the skin is a barrier and must be removed, or water must be made to reach the skin beneath it if that can be done without removing it. As for inks and colors that the skin absorbs and becomes stained with, these are not barriers because they do not form a physical layer over the skin; rather, they are coloring particles that have entered the pores of the skin.
