Antiseptic cream and wudu

[LOLOLOLOL]

Salam wa lakum,

Just wondering if putting on any kind of antiseptic cream/medical cream will invalidate your wudu?
If the doctor has advised to apply the cream 3 times a day, would the muslim women keep washing it off and performing wudu and then re applying the cream again after salah or what should she do?

Hope that makes sense.

Assalamu Alaykoum,

I answered this question a few weeks ago but for some reason, the answer did not seem to have come up so i will answer the question once again.

Antiseptic cream will not invalidate your wudu, and there is no problem with you praying while having antiseptic cream on your body. The best approach would be for you to make wudu, then apply the antiseptic cream and then pray.

Wassalams,
