Question: Wudhu - Ezcema
I have very bad eczema. Water and other substances touching my skin dehydrates, irritates and aggravates my skin. Is there another way I can do wudhu several times a day without making my skin worse?.

In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

The irritation and aggravation caused to the skin can be remedied by emollients (moisturisers) especially formulated for eczema. These can be applied after performing Wudhu to ease the irritation.

In any case, please do liaise with your G.P. about this, and see what they can prescribe you.
