The ruling on wiping over a bandage that is fully covered

Question:
And may Allah bless you. This is from al-Jad 'Al-Jad'ani, from his grandfather, who sent a question saying: A man has a wound in his foot, in his right foot, and he placed a bandage over the entire foot. The doctor warned him against letting water reach the wound because the man is diabetic. What should he do regarding the ablution? Majourin

Answer:
It is a condition for wiping over a bandage and what is in its legal category that it be the size of the injury. As for a wound on the foot where the entire foot is covered, no, he does not wipe over what is the size of the wound. The covering that exceeds the wound should be removed if possible. If it is not possible to remove the excess, he wipes over the wound and performs dry ablution (tayammum) for the excess. He washes the sound parts, wipes over the wound, and performs dry ablution for the covered excess from which he is unable to remove the covering. Yes.
