Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is the prayer of one who has involuntary urination valid? And can he be an imam in the mosque?
Answer:
Yes, his prayer is valid, but he does not perform wudu' (ablution) unless he intends to pray. He cleans himself, places something on his private part, performs wudu', and prays immediately. Even if urine comes out during his prayer, his prayer is valid. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Taghabun 64:16] It is not permissible for him to be an imam except for one who is like him, who also has involuntary urination like him. As for the stronger view, no, he will be an imam for them. Yes.
