Are clothes that semen has touched pure?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: I am a young man who experiences a wet dream, so I perform the full ritual bath to remove major ritual impurity, and then I put my clothes back on. Is there any blame in that?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
A questioner says: I am a young man who experiences a wet dream, so I perform the full ritual bath to remove major ritual impurity, and then I put my clothes back on. Is there any blame in that?

The Shaykh:
And what will you do? Do you not put your clothes back on when you have performed the full ritual bath? It is obligatory for you to put your clothes back on; this is obligatory when you have performed the full ritual bath, and praise be to Allah. Yes.

The questioner:
Shaykh, perhaps he means the clothes he was wearing when he had the wet dream.

The Shaykh:
He had the wet dream while they were pure; because semen is pure, and if he washes them for the sake of cleaning, there is no harm. Yes.
