Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
If a person scrapes his nail or skin during wudhu or after completing the wudhu and it does not bleed, it is not necessary to repeat the wudhu.
And Allah knows best
