- Mazoor

1) All people who have a certain illness within a time, whereby with Wudhu they cannot pray full Salaah and the time passes but this illness does not stop, is known as a Ma'zoor. Meaning in all the time the illness did not stop so that they could perform Wudhu and pray Fardh Salaah.

2) The rule of a Ma'zoor is that they perform Wudhu and can pray any Salaah within a Salaah time period and their Wudhu would not break due to that illness. For example:
a) illnesses like continuous drops of urine,
b) continuous releasing of wind from the back passage,
c) releasing water from a hurting eye,
d) releasing of puss from a wound or mole or water coming out of the ear or navel etc.
These are all illnesses that break the Wudhu, and if a full Salaah time goes pass and after every effort the illness does not stop, therefore you cannot become clean from it and therefore cannot pray Salaah, then this has proven that you have an illness that cannot be stopped and therefore whilst this illness continues you are a Ma'zoor.

3) For example, a time of Salaah has passed for a woman whereby Istihaza did not give her enough time that she could become clean from it and perform Wudhu and pray Fardh Salaah. In the second Salaah time, she gains enough time to perform Wudhu but blood drops once or twice then she is still a Ma'zoor, because once an illness has been proven that it can't be stopped during one Salaah period but then does not continue to be causing a problem but sometimes in a second period it returns then the person will remain a Ma'zoor as it is not necessary for the illness (once proven) to continue all the time and break Wudhu.

4) For an illness to be proven it is necessary that one whole period passed without being free from the illness that causes Wudhu to break, then in the second period all the time is not necessary but once is sufficient for them to remain a Ma'zoor.

5) As soon as the time for Fardh Salaah finishes the Wudhu of a Ma'zoor will also break. If Wudhu was performed for the Salaah of 'Asr, then it would break as soon as the sun sets. Also if Wudhu was performed after sunrise, then a Ma'zoor's Wudhu would remain until the end of Dhuhr time as there are no Fardh Salaah in between this time.

6) A Wudhu for a Ma'zoor will not break with the illness only, this means it will still break with another fault that normally would break Wudhu. For example, if a person's illness is that they continue dropping urine, then if they released wind then their Wudhu would break or if their illness that they cannot stop releasing wind then their Wudhu would break if they had urine drops.

7) If there is any way that the illness would be reduced or would stop then this is obligatory. For example, if blood flows when standing up to pray Salaah but it stops when you sit down and pray, then it is obligatory to pray whilst seated.

8) If the Ma'zoor has an illness whereby his clothing will become impure and is more than a Dirham in size and he has enough time that he can wash the impure part and then pray Salaah, then it is obligatory for him to do this, and if he knows that whilst praying Salaah it will become impure by the same amount then it is not necessary for him to wash it, continue praying with these clothes even if the place where Salaah is being prayed also gets impure.
If the impurity on the clothing is the same size as a Dirham and there is enough time for him to clean this and is also aware that the clothing will not get the same amount of impurity again whilst praying Salaah, then it is necessary (Wajib) for him to clean this. If the impurity is less than a Dirham and there is time, then it is Sunnah to clean it and if there is no time left, then in any situation it is forgiven.

9) If there is any discharge from a wound but does not flow then nor will it do not break the Wudhu, nor will you be a Ma'zoor due to it and nor is it impure.
