The Ruling on Wiping over a Wound during Ablution
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A listener says: I have a wound on my forearm, and I am unable to wash it with water for fear of harm. How should I handle this during ablution? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
If the affected limb is not affected by water, one places a covering over it, such as the coverings and bandages used for wounds, and wipes over it. If it is on a limb that requires washing in ablution, wiping over it suffices in place of washing what is underneath.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
