Summary
A person with Haemophilia A is not required to be circumcised, because the procedure may bring harm to the patient. If the patient still wishes to be circumcised, he should first seek advice from a specialist doctor. The patient should also learn about purification and give it special attention so that it is performed properly and his acts of worship are valid.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
