Q 1: I am a twenty-year-old young man
suffering from bed-wetting.
Because I am a practicing Muslim, all praise be to Allah, I find difficulty to wake up everyday to offer Fajr (Dawn) Prayer, for I find my clothes, body, and bed wet with urine. It is difficult for me to have a bath everyday. It is worth mentioning that I have been afflicted with this disease since childhood. What should I do now?
A:
If you wet your bed when you get up to offer Fajr Prayer, you have to wash the parts of your body and clothes that have become Najis (ritually impure). Moreover, you have to perform Istinja' (cleansing the private parts with water after urination or defecation) by washing your penis. Then you should perform Wudu' (ablution) and offer Salah. It is worth mentioning that it is better and easier for you to assign a garment for sleep, which you take off when you wake up, and pray in another clean one.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
