Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother says in another question: If a person is afflicted with incontinence due to old age or illness, does he pray, or is the prayer dropped from him?
Answer:
The prayer is not dropped, as long as the mind is present; he has to pray, but he performs wudu' for every prayer. If he is afflicted with continuous incontinence, which is continuous urination, the moisture; he performs wudu' for every prayer, and he prays every prayer in its time, like the woman with irregular bleeding, who has the constant blood, she performs wudu' for every prayer, and she prays, and it is not dropped from her, nor from the one with incontinence is the prayer dropped. And for both of them, combining prayers is allowed if the need calls for it, if the matter becomes difficult for them. But the man should not combine until he prays with the congregation. As for the woman, if she combines for a need; there is nothing wrong with it; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) granted a dispensation to Umm Hamnah to combine.
So the result: The one with incontinence performs wudu' for every prayer, and prays with the congregation, and he protects himself with something like a cloth that he ties on his penis; so that the urine does not spread to the clothes, and he performs wudu' for every prayer, and praise be to Allah, yes.
The presenter : May Allah bless you, may Allah reward you with good, if he feels something during the prayer?
The Shaykh : Even if something comes out, it does not harm.
The presenter : It does not harm.
The Shaykh : It does not harm the woman, nor the man, the woman with irregular bleeding and the one with incontinence, what comes out in the time does not harm them, even in the prayer.
The presenter : Even in the prayer.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The presenter : May Allah bless you.
