Question
I have an illness that leaves me in one of the following scenarios. I had severe constipation and I'm recovering from it . Each time I relieve myself it causes immense troubles in terms of pain and time (20 mins is average time). Even if I relieve I can't relieve myself completely and the urge comes back in three to four hours. Case ( 1 ) So I withhold myself from visiting the toilets because of the pain and problem it cause me . So this causes gas buildup. In this case when I pray I generally have to battle against the gases that are formed and it keeps coming so often, so is Wudhu once after prayer time sufficient for me ?

Text Answer
Case (2) Even if I relieve myself , I cannot relieve completely and sometimes there is leakage of stool beyond my control and the leakage is very minimal but it stains on the underwear. Can I pray with impurities on my underwear ? I keep on changing each time and this is causing me hardships and sometimes I'm in university and hence can't carry extra or additional clothes to change along with me . Also is my Wudhu valid in such a case ? Case (3) Everytime I relieve myself there is an urge to relieve again in the next three to four hours and there is some relief in the first two hours or so and then there is again gas forming . Can I pray with a single Wudhu after time has occurred ? Case (4) After relieving myself for the second time , there is a period of peace where I don't feel gas if I indulge or busy myself in some duty, but when I pray I have gas problems during Sujood , Rukoo , Tashahud and its likes because of the position. Can I pray with one Wudhu here as well ? This happens everytime and I try to withhold the gases to the best of my ability. Please help my issue. This is causing a lot of hardship upon me , and I feel very pathetic upon the illness I am having. I can't concentrate in Salah because of holding on to my gases. When I feel too helpless , I have Waswas from Shaytan telling me bad things about Islam. I also have urinary incontinence for fifteen to twenty mins after each time I relieve myself from urine , so for all these problems I maintain two sets of dresses one for prayer and other for general use , can I keep washing and drying them, this is a burden upon me . But when I go to the university I can't change clothes easily. When the pain of illness is more , my mind becomes pathetic, I can't channel my thoughts, I can't have Taqwa and I can't lower my gaze and end up sinning . Please advice me. May Allah reward you abundantly for reading all through this. ( End of Question ) .
