Ruling on Continuous Exit of Tapeworm from the Anus

Question
A person continuously has worms exiting from his anus. Is this person considered to have an excuse? Sometimes the worms exit every 15 minutes during prayer, and sometimes it stops for days?
Answer

I say, and with Allah's success: If he cannot perform ablution and pray except with the exit of the worms, then he is considered to have an excuse at that time, so he performs ablution for the time. If the time for prayer passes and the worms do not exit, he is no longer considered to have an excuse. And Allah knows best.
