Sounds in the stomach do not invalidate ablution

Question

I always hear some repeated sounds in my stomach, and this makes me repeat ablution and prayer more than once. So do these sounds invalidate ablution and prayer or not?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

Hearing a sound in one’s stomach is not one of the nullifiers of ablution as long as the person is sure that nothing came out of his penis or anus, and does not hear sound coming out of his anus.

Allaah Knows best.
