Question:

 

Someone will be doing dialysis later today, and during the process maghrib time will enter and leave.

 

Due to no one being there to help him perform wudhu, is it ok if he does tayammum to perform maghrib? Will salah need to be repeated later? جَزَاكُمُ اللهُ خَيْرًا

 

 

 

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Answer:

 

One should schedule the process in such time where there is no salah. This will be easy and can be done at ease. The dialysis process take 2 to 4 hours.

 

For example if a person does it early morning, then he can make wudhu for the zohr salah. Tayammum can only be performed if there is no clean water, illness or hardship. Therefore one should perform the maghrib salah then start the dialysis. He can delay the esha salah as the time is long.
