The descent of a drop of water after relieving oneself and waswas (whispers of Satan)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks, saying that he has been afflicted with something for a month. When he goes to perform wudu' (ablution) after relieving himself, he feels a drop of water coming from his private part. What should he do?

Answer:
This is waswas (whispers of Satan). He has to, when he urinates or relieves himself, perform istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself) or istijmar (cleaning with a stone), and dry the exit, then perform istinja' with water, then perform wudu' and pray. He should not pay attention to the waswas. Whether a drop came or not, whether it came or not, whether this happened or that, these are waswas. He should not pay attention to them. Yes.

May Allah reward you with good,
