What is the ruling on the prayer of one who suffers from urinary incontinence and uses diapers, and some drops or urination come out into the diaper while he is at work or outside the home? Should he wipe the place of the urine on the diaper, perform ablution, and pray?

If the emission of the impurity is irregular, then one must perform ablution for every prayer when its time enters, after taking precautions. What is emitted of urine after that does not matter. There is no need to wipe the diaper or change it for every prayer.
