Not Being Able To Leave The Congregation When Wudhu Breaks During Salaah
Question
If a person performing Salaah in congregation breaks his Wudhu but is unable to leave the congregation due to huge crowds, what should he do?
Answer
If it seems impossible or extremely difficult for a person to leave the congregation (even by cutting through the Sufoof) due to the large numbers of Musallees, he should just sit down in his place.
