Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man is suffering from urinary incontinence, and at times, while he is in prostration, he feels urine dripping from him. What is the ruling on his prayer, and what should he do?
Answer:
It depends on his condition.[Al-Baqarah 2:286] If the urine is constantly dripping and he has no control over it, then he performs wudu' when it is time for prayer, cleans himself, places a barrier over his private part, performs wudu', and hastens to pray. Even if urine comes out of him while he is praying, his prayer is valid. Allah the Exalted said: [At-Taghabun 64:16] Yes.

Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity
لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَاSo fear Allah as much as you are able
فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
