Completing Sa’ee on a Wheelchair due to an Injury
Question
A person who was performing sa’ee of Safaa and Marwah on foot was knocked by a wheelchair and was hurt. Is it permissible for him to complete the remainder of his sa’ee in a wheelchair?
Answer
If he is unable to complete the sa’ee walking due to the pain and the difficulty, then completing the sa’ee on a wheelchair will be permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
