The ruling on the prayer of one whose urine flow is slow

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah keep you safe. I have a disease in the urinary tract, which results in the urine not stopping when I reach the restroom, may Allah reward you, except after a time of about a quarter of an hour or more. Sometimes I enter the bathroom before the iqamah with insufficient time, for example for this reason. So, is it permissible for me in this case for the urine to stop? And to leave the congregation, is that better, or only from Allah.

Answer:
There is no existing [issue] regarding the interruption of the time. A valid wudu' (ablution), even if he joined the congregation, because he heard the adhan (call to prayer), and praise be to Allah. This is a type of illness that is excused, and because the complete, valid wudu' is necessary.
