Suffering From Urinary Incontinence

· 5 Jumada II 1433 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If a woman has urinary incontinence, what are the rules concerning her wudhu?

Answer

If the dripping is continuous to such an extent that for the entire duration of a namaaz time one is unable to perform wudhu and read four rakaats of namaaz without the urine dripping, then such a person will be classified as a ma`zur. The law for such a person is that he/she will have to make a new wudhu for every namaaz time.

( وحكمه الوضوء ) لا غسل ثوبهونحو ( لكل فرض ... ثم يصلي ) به ( فيه فرضا ونفلا ) فدخل الواجب بالأولى ( فإذا خرج الوقت بطل ) (الدر المختار 1/305-306)
