Question and Answer:
- I know that the saliva of a dog is impure. If the dog licks me, does my Wudhu break?
(Query published as received)
A. The saliva of a dog is impure and a Muslim should remain free from impurities as much as possible. If the dog licks you, the soiled area becomes impure and it is necessary to wash. However, it will not cause your Wudhu to become invalid.
And Allah Knows Best
