Question

Please can you advise me with regards to whether when urine falls on my skin and I wipe my skin and ensure it is dry. If I subsequently perspire does my clothes as well as all the places I sit on (bed, chair etc) become napaak and do I have to clean these surfaces by wiping them thrice?

Answer

If after washing your skin there was no traces of urine at all, then the skin is paak. Later on through perspiring it will not become napaak.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Q: My question did not relate to washing the skin but rather wiping the skin with for example tissue, please refer above.

A: If you did not wash it, and merely wiped it, it will remain napaak.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
