Question
What is the ruling on the wudu of a patient with a urinary catheter? Is it required for him to perform wudu for every prayer? What is the ruling on his prayer with the presence of a urine bag?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: This patient is considered to have an excuse, and he must perform ablution for each prayer. His ablution is invalidated when the time expires, and his ablution and prayer are valid with the presence of a urinary catheter; because he is someone with an excuse, and this is the utmost he can do. And God knows best.
