Best Answer

A person who could permanently retract his foreskin is deemed to be naturally circumcised and need not be circumcised !

Although circumcision is an integral part of Islam, there are exceptions to those individuals who could not be circumcised as the operation if carried out might be harmful to them or might jeopardise their health.

Among these categories of people include the disabled, infirm, those suffering from chronic illnesses eg:haemophillia or those born naturally circumcised( with little or no foreskin) or become naturally circumcised later owing to the onset of puberty where the foreskin shortens to the extent that it becomes permanently retracted behind the head thus exposing the head.

What is partial circumcision?

Partial circumcision removes only part of the foreskin. Partial foreskin may be used to treat phimosis (a tight foreskin) that does not respond to gradual stretching exercises with a corticosteroid cream. Instead of removing the entire foreskin, partial circumcision only removes the tight phimotic ring that prevents the foreskin from being retracted. Many men with phimosis prefer partial circumcision to complete circumcision as it retains most of the foreskin, which functions in several ways to increase pleasure during sexual activity.
