The ritual purity of a bedridden patient and how he prays
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
If a patient stays in the hospital for a long period on a bed, unable to move because of the machines, is he required to perform wudu' (ablution), or is tayammum (dry ablution) sufficient? And what is the method of his prayer?
The Shaykh:
Tayammum is necessary. He performs tayammum and prays. Praise be to Allah,[At-Taghabun 64:16]. Yes.
The questioner:
Tell us how he prays, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
He prays according to his condition. He prays with his head, indicating ruku' (bowing) and sujud (prostration) with his head. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
