Purity for one who does not find a suitable place for wudu' among his relatives
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person is suffering from a mental paralysis, and he sometimes goes to some of his relatives, but there is no suitable place for him to perform wudu' there. What should he do if the time for prayer arrives? Does he perform tayammum even though water is available? Or what does he do?
Answer:
No, he does not perform tayammum; the water is available. Is there anything he can use to relieve himself? Either he is in a state of need, or he says he is in a state of need, there is no need, he says in a vessel or a jar or any container, and he cleans himself with rough paper, and the dhikr is sufficient, and this is sufficient with his permission, and he performs wudu'. Even if the situation is that he defecates in a vessel or a jar or something or in a bag, because he is unable to go to the toilet, he does this, and it does not contradict [the rules]. He wipes with rough paper and blows.
The presenter:
I have taken it, and if Allah wills, it can be investigated. Yes.
