If you are asking about the validity of ablution (wudu') and prayer (salat) without performing ' (ritual cleansing) after passing wind, then both the ablution and the prayer are valid. This is because istinja' after passing wind is not obligatory; rather, it is a reprehensible innovation (bid'ah makruhah), and it may even be forbidden according to some scholars.
