What is the ruling on Friday prayer, Eid prayers, ablution (wudu'), and dry ablution (tayammum) for a physically disabled person who suffers from chronic leakage of urine mixed with pus and blood?
It is permissible to perform (dry ablution) for someone who cannot use water due to illness or fear of certain or probable harm, or due to lack of water, or the absence of someone to provide them with water. Otherwise, using water for wudu (ablution) is obligatory. If the urine discharge from the tube is continuous, it takes the ruling of urinary incontinence, and the person must perform wudu for each prayer. It is also permissible for them to combine Dhuhr and Asr, and Maghrib and Isha prayers. However, if the discharge is not continuous, it does not take the ruling of incontinence, and they should pray after it stops. One must guard against urine leakage and purify any impurity as much as possible. If the patient is physically unable to move, there is no blame upon them for missing Friday prayers, congregational prayers, and Eid prayers.
