The ruling on wudu' when there is a bandage on a body part

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you and bless you. This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding the bandage that is placed on the body during the full ritual bath, Honorable Shaykh, we are unable to remove these bandages. Is the wudu' valid?

Answer:
If the bandage is placed for a need, such as a wound underneath it that requires it to prevent external factors from affecting the wound, then there is no harm. He wipes over it when he purifies himself from major ritual impurity, wiping over it, or when he performs wudu' and it is on the body parts of wudu', he wipes over it, and this suffices for washing what is underneath it until what is underneath it heals or he no longer needs it, at which point he removes it. Yes.
