Cleaning a Daughter’s Ill Father and Seeing His Private Parts

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman is asking, and she says: My father is ill and cannot take care of himself. Is it permissible for her to clean him and see his private parts out of necessity?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for her to see his private parts. But if he needs it and there is no one else present, she should place a barrier between herself and his private parts, put strips on her hands, and clean him. Yes.
