Question :

What is the ruling on performing istinja' after passing wind from the anus?



The Answer :

Ablution is invalidated by passing wind from the anus, even without a smell. Only ablution becomes obligatory from it. Istinja' is not obligatory nor recommended. And Allah the Almighty knows best.
