Submitted by admin on Tue, 2013-09-17 09:01

Q: I have a terrible rash on my private part and its very itchy and I loose a lot of sleep because at night it stings and burns. My question is the doctor asked me to pour my urine over my private part it will help heal the rash. Am I allowed to do this because it is umpure and it is najasat unclean so am I allowed to do this and afterwards should I do ghusl?

A: If it is for medical reasons, it will be permissible. However, the private part will have to be washed in order for one to become paak. Ghusal will not be compulsory.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
