Question

As we all know that almost all houses have lizards. My question is:

1. Lizard's dropping is found on the wall and it has dried. If we paint the wall and the brush touches the impurity, does it make all the wall with new paint impure?

2. If this wall with new paint dries and someone with wet hand touches it, but the traces of color is not visible, will his hand be pure?

Answer

1. The wall will not be na paak.

2. His hand will not become impure.

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