Leaving the prayer due to the inability to achieve ritual purity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman who has been afflicted with an illness and is unable to retain control, specifically regarding ritual purity. She has left off the prayer because of her lack of purity. We advised her, but she still refuses, saying, "Until a clear proof comes to me that permits me to pray while I am in a state of ritual impurity." What is the ruling on such an action?
Answer:
Allah the Exalted[At-Taghabun 64:16] has made it obligatory upon her to do what she is able to do, and she is not held accountable for what she is unable to do if she leaves it.
