Can I make wudu without touching right side of face if I have a nerve disorder?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
AsSalamalaikum ..My father is suffering with a disease of nervus system. Many times he feels very high pains by just touching the right side around face,he is also unable to just pour water or make masah on that side of face ,in this case is it permissible to make wadu by ignoring whole face or at least the right side of face.

Answer

(Fatwa: 617/419/L=1431)

It is necessary for your farther to wash the part of the face in which he does not feel pain. Yes, the part of the face in which he feels unbearable pain and it is difficult to pour water or make masah, he can perform wudhu by leaving that particular part.

من به وجع رأس لا يستطيع معه مسحه محدثاً ولا غسله جنباً ففى الفيض عن غريب الرواية يتيمم افتی قارئ الهداية أنه يسقط عنه فرض مسحه (الدر المختار:1/433 باب التيمم).
