Dry najaasat
Question
If there is dry najasat-e-ghalizah on a wall, will wiping it down once suffice? Also if clean dry clothes were placed on something that had the dry najasat-e-ghalizah on it, will they become napaak?
Answer
1. If it is washed with a wet cloth until the traces are completely removed, it will be paak.
2. If the najaasat was dry, it will not soil the clothing and therefore the clothing will remain paak.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
