A woman suffering from asthma who, when she bathes with cold water and it reaches her chest, has her asthma worsen: is it permissible for her to wipe over her chest?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. Sister S.C. from Riyadh says: A woman is suffering from asthma, and in the winter she wants to take a ghusl (full ritual bath) for menstruation and the like. When she becomes pure, she asks: if she takes a ghusl or bath, the cold water increases her asthma. So what should I do? Should I wash all parts of the body and leave the chest, wiping it lightly to suffice for washing it, or what do you advise me to do? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The cold water can be heated, and heating devices are available, praise be to Allah. So the cold water is heated and it will not harm her. She should warm herself after the ghusl, warming herself until she dries off and her body is covered. She should warm herself with clothes or near her heater, or otherwise. Yes.
