  • Shall Doctor Offer Prayer Or Take Care Of Patient?

    Posted by Aejaz Ahmed on July 17, 2023 at 2:54 pm

    نماز کے وقت اگر ڈاکٹر کے سامنے ایسا مریض آجائے جسکا فوری علاج ضروری ہو اور علاج کے دوران نماز کا وقت نکل جائے تو کیا ڈاکٹر کو علاج جاری رکھنا چاہیئے یا مریض کو چھوڑ کر نماز پڑھنا چاہیئے ؟؟

    what does your common sense says?? being a doctor always give preference to critical ill patient. As in the Quran it says “The one who saved on life, as he saved the whole humanity”.

    You can offer prayer latter or you can offer just Faraz. if the time permit.

    This is not a matter of preferring one to the other. If it is, God stands the most preferable. in Quran it is said:

    وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَشَدُّ حُبًّا لِّلَّهِ

    This is the mercy of God that He Himself allowed to attend to an immediate necessity first and for that, He has given relaxation in fulfilling His right of worship. This makes us love Him more and believe in Him the wisest and the most merciful.

    Having said that, you can adopt all those relaxations of prayer in a journey or prayer of fear in the matters mentioned above, like shortening the prayers of four rakaat to two, combining the prayers of zuhar and asr; and maghrib and Isha, exemption from wudu, you can do the tayammum, etc. and also you can say your prayer with just gestures standing or sitting if movement is not possible.
