How to Purify and Pray After Surgery
Do I need to perform ablution or a full wash after undergoing a surgery with general anesthesia, knowing that I cannot take a full wash due to abdominal surgery? How can I pray if I can stand but cannot bow or prostrate?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is necessary to perform ablution after complete anesthesia, not a full wash, and one can pray by gestures for those who are unable to prostrate, and God knows best.
