The ruling on the ablution of a patient with urinary incontinence
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I am afflicted with urinary incontinence, so I ask you to clarify how I should proceed. I am unable to perform wudu because the urine keeps coming out continuously. Is it obligatory for me to change my clothes or place something on my private part for every prayer, given that this involves great hardship?
Answer:
Yes. The scholars hold that for one whose condition is permanent, like yours, he performs wudu, cleans himself, and places something to protect the penis to prevent the leakage of urine. He performs wudu and prays immediately. Even if urine comes out while he is praying, his prayer is valid. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Taghabun 64:16] Yes.
