Question
A lady went to the mall to do shopping. She was dressed un-Islamically with her hair all exposed. But she had wudhu when she left home. After she returned, she performed Salaat with the same wudhu. Was her wudhu valid after all the sin she had indulged in?
Answer
While this lady's Wudhu remains valid she should understand that every second when she was out of the home with her hair, etc. exposed the la'nat (curse) of Allah Ta'ala and His Malaaikah was settling on her. She was involved in prolonged sinning whilst she was out of her home in this haraam state. It is mustahab to renew Wudhu after committing a sin even if the Wudhu is still valid.
