May Allah make it easy on your aunt. She has to pray on time and in clean body and clothes. These are two of the conditions of prayer.

If she can remove the pampers and pray clean after washing, if she can make wudhu and if she can pray each prayer on time, she should do that. But if she is unable to pray clean due to her continuous urine problem, she can pray as she is.

If she can’t perform wudhu because it is really too painful or due to her injuries, she should wash the areas she can and then perform wudhu on behalf of the rest.

If she can’t pray on time due to fainting or because it is too hard for her to clean herself and perform wudhu 5 times a day, she can combine Thuhur with Asr and Maghrib with Isha.

In Singapore we only hear adzan at the radio to know the time of all our 5 daily prayers.Are we oblige to repeat the adzan after the muadzin and recite the dua after adzan?

Can you please clarify the implication of reciting a lower surrah in the first rakaah and a higher surrah in the second rakaah. Is it true that you should always recite a higher one in the first raakah and the lower one in the second raakah?
