How a patient with urinary incontinence performs wudu, and the ruling on his wudu if something comes out of him
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abd al-Rahman Muhammad from Jeddah, says: I am a patient with urinary incontinence, may Allah grant us and you health. I perform wudu for every prayer, and sometimes I am in the Sacred Mosque, but I feel something coming out of me, may Allah honor you. Should I go to renew my wudu? Knowing that, as you know, the restrooms are outside the Haram and far from it, with heavy crowds, and I might miss the prayer while I am in the restroom. What should I do? And if I miss the prayer, do I pray it again? What is your view on missing the congregation while I am near the mosque? Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you with good, and may He benefit us with your knowledge.
Answer:
If the urine comes out of you continuously, this is the disease of incontinence. You must perform wudu when you intend to pray; do not perform wudu a long time before, but rather perform wudu when you intend to pray, at the time of the iqamah. If you are going to pray in the mosque, perform wudu and go to the mosque to attend the prayer from the beginning. First, clean yourself, then place a protective barrier on your private part to prevent urine from leaking onto your clothes, your body, or the place. Place a protective item, then perform wudu, then pray immediately, whether you are in Makkah or elsewhere. If urine comes out of you during the prayer, it does not invalidate your prayer, and praise be to Allah, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted:[At-Taghabun 64:16] [Al-Baqarah 2:286] However, if you perform wudu a long time before, then you must renew the wudu, because you performed wudu before the time entered and before the prayer began for you, because you are one of those with an excuse. Do not perform wudu a long time before, but rather perform wudu when you intend to pray, or a little before if you are going to the mosque. Yes.

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا
