Is it permissible to bring a female servant for a sick father if the sons are busy?

The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says to me: My father has been in the hospital for nearly ten years. We, the sons, have busy schedules and life circumstances. He is in a complete coma and has not been aware of anything for all these years. We have hired a female servant for him. So what do you advise the sons to do in such matters?

The Shaykh:
As long as he is in the hospital, hospitals have nurses who serve the patients. If you bring a female or male servant, it is better that you bring a male servant to take care of him, turn him over, and also help him relieve himself, as he may expose his private parts. So bring him a male servant. Yes.

The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, the sons in such a situation, with their father in the hospital, have a great reward in trying to care for him and stand by him.

The Shaykh:
There is no doubt that this is dutifulness to the father, especially when he is in need. They care for him, visit him, check on his condition, and observe him. If they place a male servant with him to take care of his affairs in their absence, that is dutifulness and excellence in worship. Yes.
