Is it haram to put a bag over the private parts of someone who suffers from incontinence?

07-06-2009

Question 11013

What is the ruling on a person who is in ihram and who suffers from incontinence putting something over his private parts – such as a bag – so that the najaasah (impurity) will not spread? Is this one of the things that are forbidden in ihram?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

We put this question to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen (may Allah preserve him), who replied that this is not one of the things that are forbidden in ihram.

And Allah knows best.
