A young man has a fluid discharge from his penis due to a germ infection in his organ; does he perform wudu for every prayer, like one with incontinence?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: This young man has a fluid discharge from his penis due to a microbe or germ infection in his reproductive organ. He asks about how he should pray: does he perform wudu for every prayer, like one with incontinence? And what is the ruling on the discharge of this substance after he has performed wudu?

Answer:
This varies depending on the situation. If this fluid is continuous and does not stop or cease, but keeps flowing, then his state of ritual impurity is permanent. He should clean himself when he wants to pray, place something on his penis to prevent the discharge from leaking, perform wudu, and pray at that time. However, if this fluid is not constant but only comes at certain times, then he must clean himself as mentioned before, dry his penis, perform wudu, and pray. He must break his prayer if a discharge occurs, because it is not permanent. As for the first case, where it is permanent, if a discharge occurs while he is praying, his prayer is valid because he cannot do more than that. As for the one where it is not permanent, if a discharge occurs, it invalidates his wudu, so he breaks the prayer, performs wudu again, and prays, because it is not constant but only comes at certain times. Yes.
