The Loss of Reason Due to Insanity or Anesthesia and Its Effect on Wudu'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Now, if reason is lost due to insanity, does the wudu become invalid, Your Eminence the Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
If his mind returns to him, it is invalid.

The questioner:
What is the ruling for one whose mind is lost due to anesthesia?

The Shaykh:
It is the same, if the mind is altered. Yes.
