Salah of an enuretic patient


508

Q 4: I have an old blind aunt who suffers from uterine cancer and enuresis. When the time of Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer is due, she performs Ghusl (ritual bath) and offers Zhuhr and `Asr (Afternoon) prayers together. She also combines the Maghrib (Sunset) and `Isha' (Night) prayers together. What is the ruling on this? May Allah reward you best.


A: She may pray in the way that suits her best. There is nothing wrong with her combining Zhuhr and `Asr together or Maghrib and `Isha'. This is based on the general proofs of Shari`ah (Islamic Law) which grant these facilitations. She is only required to perform Wudu' (ablution) for Salah after its time is due.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
