Q&A⚖️ Fiqh & Law

There is a person who suffers from a skin allergy triggered by any cold. When any of his limbs—such as the forearm or the leg from the knee to the foot—are exposed, he experiences such a reaction that it can even lead to choking. As a result, performing ablution (wudu) or full ritual washing (ghusl) with water is impossible for him, and if he tries to perform tayammum (dry ablution), he also experiences a reaction and suffers. Therefore, he is unable to perform wudu and is affected by tayammum every time he prays or daily. What is the ruling here regarding prayer and purification?

Answer

In the name of Allah, he should prepare warm water for wudu and ghusl to avoid the cold. If he is forced to perform tayammum, he may do so using the tayammum soil. Allah knows best.
