Tayammum for a Person with Quadriplegia
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you. This is one of our brothers from the hospital, may Allah heal him. He says: I am suffering from quadriplegia, and I am unable to perform tayammum. If anyone touches me, I suffer from spasms. So what is your guidance, may Allah preserve you?
Answer:
If he is unable to do it himself, another person should do it for him in a way that does not cause him tension, either with his hands or with a cloth he places in the dust and uses to wipe his face and hands in a manner that enables him to do so if he cannot do it himself; for Allah says:[At-Taghabun 64:16] in a way that does not harm him.
The presenter:
I am at your service
