Question Summary:
Do i have to make Wudhu or masah over my feet due to a medical condition?

Question Detail:

I have been suffering with a wart on the right sole of my foot for as long as 2 years, it has restricted my movement abit and I have tried numerous solution to solve it as the doctors advised from applying cream, burning it off and freezing it off. The nhs would take far too long so I have concidered paying a small amount to a private clinic to treat it. One of the methods they use is to pour acid onto the wart and to keep the foot dry from 2 days to a week deoending on the severity of my problem.
My question is will my wudhu be incomplete if over a given period I have to keep the foot dry and do masah over these few days?

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
If you are advised by your medical practitioner to keep the foot dry after the acid treatment, then you will be exempt from washing that foot in Wudhu.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
