Does touching your spouse after wudu break it?

A lot of folks think so, but my father has a different take. He often says, 'If that were true, wouldn't our wudu be invalid during tawaf around the Kaabah? Sometimes we hold our spouse's hand, right?' He sees marriage as something pure, so he doesn't consider touching your spouse a problem.

Your father makes a solid point. I've heard scholars differ on this, but his tawaf example is really practical. In the Hanafi school, touching without desire doesn't break wudu, right?

Bro, that's a classic shafi'i vs hanafi debate. I grew up being told it breaks wudu, but your dad's logic about tawaf is hard to ignore. May Allah bless him.

I remember my imam saying the same thing during a khutbah. It's a mercy that spouses don't have to redo wudu every time they touch. Islam is practical.
