Purifying the garment and the body from a dog's saliva

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: If a dog’s saliva falls on clothing or on the body, do we wash this saliva with water seven times, the first of which with earth, or is it washed with soap?

Answer:
Yes, it is washed seven times, whether on the garment, on the body, or on the vessel, because the impurity of the dog is severe, as the scholars said. It is washed seven times, and it is also rubbed with soil, or with soap, or with tooth powder, or with cleaning agents. They say that these take the place of soil, but the correct view is that they do not take the place of soil, because soil has a property that is not found in anything else. Yes.
