The ruling on purifying a garment affected by ritual impurity using a washing machine with soap
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, when washing a garment affected by ritual impurity in a clothes washing machine, soap is placed with the water. Does it become purified by that? And if not, is it necessary to wash it with water only?
Answer:
There is no harm if something from the purifying substances, such as soap or shampoo, is placed with the water. There is no harm in this. The important thing is the presence of the water. If a purifying substance, or sidr, or shanan, or soap is placed with it, there is no barrier, because the water is present.
