The leadership of one with a continuous state of ritual impurity

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man whose state of ritual impurity is continuous leads us in prayer, and he is the best of us in recitation, does he lead? And are the followers required to repeat the prayer?

Answer:
This is not permissible. His leadership is not valid, whether it is the state of ritual impurity from urination or a continuous state of ritual impurity, such as the constant passing of wind. His leadership is not valid except for one like him. If he prays with you, your prayer is not valid. His prayer is not valid for the healthy, because his prayer is a prayer of dire necessity, which is permissible for him and for one like him, even if he is the best of you in recitation. This is because, with respect to you, he is not in a state of ritual purity, but with respect to him, he is in a state of ritual purity due to the dire necessity. Yes.
