Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman broke her hand and prayed for two months without wiping over the cast, and she learned about this today. Should she repeat the prayers from two months ago, or is she excused due to ignorance?
Answer:
No, she is not excused. One is not excused in ritual purity due to ignorance; ignorance does not drop an obligatory duty. Therefore, she must repeat the prayers. May Allah help her with this, because she did not complete her ritual purity. Yes. Why did you not ask, my brother? The problem is that a person does not ask, even though he has scholars, students of knowledge, a telephone, and a mobile phone, and he does not ask. This is a problem.
