The ruling on the prayer of a cancer patient who cannot control the passing of wind
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I have a relative who was afflicted with cancer, may Allah protect us and you from it. He underwent surgery, and as a result, the muscles controlling the passage of waste have weakened. He performs purification for every prayer, but during the prayer, when he bows and prostrates, wind passes from him, and he is unable to control it. I ask you to answer this, and may Allah reward you with the best reward.
Answer:
Yes, this is a permanent state of ritual impurity for him. He performs wudu' when he wants to pray; he cleans himself and performs wudu' when he intends to pray, and he prays even if something passes from him, because he cannot do more than that. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Taghabun 64:16] [Al-Baqarah 2:286] So he cleans himself and performs wudu' when he wants to pray, and he prays immediately, and his prayer is valid, and he continues even if something passes from him. Yes. May Allah reward you.

So fear Allah as much as you are able
فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْAllah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity
لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا
