Question
I broke my toe, and now i’m wearing a cast on my leg from the toes until just before my knee.
How should i make Wudhu and Ghusl?
How should i offer my salah? I can stand with and bend to ruku, but not go to sajdah or sit on the ground.
What if i also cannot stand?
Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
I hope and pray for your complete recovery.
You will make your complete wudhu, and do masah with a wet hand over the feet area of the cast.
Since it will be hard for you to stand and pray, you will sit on the chair or if possible on the floor and perform your Salah. You will make your Sajdah and Ruku’ by action alone.
And Allah knows best
