Did Ibn Taymiyyah say: A little urine is of no account, like a drop or two, as with one who has incontinence?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it true that the Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said that a little urine is of no account, like one who has incontinence, if it is small, like a drop or two? And is it obligatory for the one with incontinence to perform wudu for every prayer?
Answer:
The person who suffers from incontinence, where urine continues to flow and never stops, this is the person with incontinence. His ruling is that he performs wudu' when it is time for prayer, and he prays even if urine comes out of him. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Taghabun 64:16] As for the one whose urine does not continue, but only comes out at times, he does not take the ruling of the person with incontinence. It is obligatory for him to perform istinja', perform wudu', and pray. If urine comes out of him after that, his wudu' is invalidated, because this is an occasional occurrence and not a continuous one. As for what was mentioned about Shaykh al-Islam, I do not know; I have not seen it.

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
