The ruling on wiping over a bandage placed on a wound
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a person suffered a minor wound on his finger and placed a bandage on it. Is he required to remove it when he wants to perform wudu'?
Answer:
No. If he places the bandage on the wound or fracture, it remains until the wound or fracture heals, and he wipes over it. It is sufficient for him to wipe over it when performing wudu'; he wipes over the cast or the bandage and leaves it. This is for the benefit of the wound; its remaining on him is in his interest so that the wound or fracture may heal. Yes.
