A diabetic patient who continuously leaks urine

707

Q 1: I am a diabetic and I leak some drops of urine while offering Salah (Prayer) at the Masjid (mosque). So I leave Salah to change my clothes and renew my Wudu' (ablution). What should I do? Guide me, may Allah reward you.

A: If urine comes out of you continuously, you should perform Istinja' (cleansing the private parts with water after urination or defecation) when you want to offer Salah and pad your penis to prevent the urine from leaking to your body and clothes. Then you should perform Wudu' and offer Salah when the time of every Salah is due. If, after this, urine comes out while you are offering Salah, your Salah is valid in this case. (Part No. 4; Page No. 255) Allah (Exalted be He) says: So keep your duty to Allâh and fear Him as much as you can However, if the urine does not come out continuously, you should leave Salah if urine comes out while you are offering it, and wash the places on your body and clothes that have been stained with urine, and then perform Wudu' and offer Salah.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
