Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks: Is it obligatory to remove all obstacles from the body, such as a back patch, when performing the full ritual bath for major ritual impurity?
Answer:
If the patch, the dressing on the wound, or the cast on the fracture needs to remain, then it stays and he wipes over it. He wipes over it until he no longer needs it, then he removes it. The cast, the dressing, the patch, and anything else that is needed remains, and he wipes over it, and that is sufficient. Wiping over it is sufficient in place of washing the water underneath it until he no longer needs it, then he removes it. Yes.
