The answer

The statement that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did not urinate as people do, but rather his urine was like sweat, is a false and reprehensible claim. It constitutes an exaggeration against which the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, warned when he said: "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians exaggerated in praising Jesus, son of Mary. Indeed, I am but a servant, so say: 'Allah's Servant and His Messenger.'" The saying of Allah Almighty suffices to refute this claim: "Say, 'I am only a human being like you, to whom revelation is granted that your God is but one God. So whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work and not associate anyone with the worship of his Lord.'"
