Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The question says: Sometimes the patient is in a state of consciousness, and some of the nurses perform the changing of his clothes and cleaning him, and some of his clothes and the severe bandages may be affected by the first [impurity].
The Shaykh:
I expect.
The questioner:
And it may return from the first, and it may return from the first.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Some of the patients are present in the hospital and he does not know, or he is unable to indicate, regarding the fasting prayer, and what is obligatory upon him.
The Shaykh:
If he knows, he is required to wash the impurity, or remove the garment and replace it with another, if he is able. If he is not able, he prays in his garment even if it has impurity in it,[At-Taghabun 64:16], or if it has impurity and he did not know about it, or if he prayed while he did not know about it, his prayer is valid; because he is excused due to his ignorance of it.
