The questioner : He says:The questioner : A man has one artificial leg; what does he do during wudu'? Does he wipe over it?
The Shaykh : He does not wipe over it unless the amputation was from part of the foot. In that case, he washes the remaining part, or wipes over it if he is unable to wash it. However, if the leg was amputated above the ankle, it is not obligatory for him to wash the artificial leg or wipe over it. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
