Prayin with nail polish ? or kennah ?

Salam Aleykum!


I know that nail polish isn Haram! But it is kinda not allowed when u wear it while performin ur prayers, cuz the water duzn reach ur nail when u do wudu'.. that's what people say n ulama' as well!! But is there any verse or hadith that prooves it.. or a simulation to this case when Muhammad (pbuh) was alive..! Cuz women do kennah on their hands n nails too.. even though they pray with it.. they say is ok(accordin to sum ulama') !then if nail polish covers nails; kennah duz too.. n in wudu' the water duzn reach their nails as well! So in both cases.. prayers r just not performed as it should be!


I jus wanna know if im right with that?

Prayin with nail polish ? or kennah ?
Most nail polishes are made of nitrocellulose dissolved in a solvent and either left clear or colored with various pigments. Basic components included are: film forming agents, resins and plasticizers, solvents, and coloring agents.








For one of the absolute requirements for the validity of ablution is that water should come in contact with one’s skin (unless of course one is suffering from a medical condition that prevents using water). Since nail polish has a thick layer of coating that prevents water coming in contact with the skin, wudu’ performed while wearing nail polish shall be considered as null and void.





Henna, Lawsonia inermis, produces a red-orange dye molecule, lawsone. This molecule has an affinity for bonding with protein, and thus has been used to dye skin, hair, fingernails, leather, silk and wool.





U can see there is no film coating in Henna its a dye used to dye body parts, like hands feet and hair.


as its a dye wudu will be valid.
Reply:nail polish is sealed and does not let water pass through it, henna does because it is just a stain not paint. you can put henna on your nails if you want color, or maybe some other kind of stain if you want another color of course I don't know the ruling on other stains and you would need to be sure that it is made of Halal products.
Reply:Im not islamic, but from what I have studied of it I believe nailpolish should be removed.
Reply:try leaving about millimetre space around the cuticle that way you can have the water reach the cuticle
