"His family is thankful for the many prayers, concerns and well-wishes expressed by volunteers, friends and the general public."
WP said Mr Faisal's condition was stable when he was warded on Monday night.
In his absence, his constituency duties and activities in his Kaki Bukit ward will continue to be covered by fellow WP Aljunied MPs, along with other volunteers and senior party members.
The other Aljunied Group Representation Constituency MPs are Leader of the Opposition and party chief Pritam Singh, party chairwoman Sylvia Lim and WP's head of policy research Gerald Giam.
Former WP media head Leon Perera was also an MP for Aljunied before resigning last week over an extramarital affair with fellow party member Ms Nicole Seah.
