Does the ruling on one who suffers from سلس (incontinence) apply to me concerning the continuous emission of gas during prayer, and what about past prayers if this ruling does not apply to me?

The answer

If the emission of wind is continuous such that the worshipper does not find enough time to perform the prayer with proper purity, or if the time of its cessation is erratic, then his ruling is that of one afflicted with perpetual ritual impurity (sahib al-salas). He is required to perform ablution for every prayer after its time has begun, and with this ablution, he prays the obligatory prayer and whatever supererogatory prayers he wishes. What exits from him during the prayer does not harm him. However, if he knows that there is a time sufficient for performing the prayer with proper purity, then he must wait for that time to pray in it.
