Washing the Feet in Wudu' for One Who Is Unable to Do So
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, an elderly woman is unable to stand. When she wants to perform wudu', she finds it difficult to wash her feet due to the illness she is suffering from. My question is: Is the washing of the feet dropped for her and she moves to tayammum for the feet, or is it necessary to wash the feet?
Answer:
It is necessary to wash the feet, except if she is unable to do so completely and there is no one with her to wash her feet. As for if there is someone around her who can wash her feet, this is obligatory; it is obligatory that she washes her feet. So if she is not able to wash her feet and there is no one with her to wash them, then she performs tayammum for the legs in this case. Yes.
