Entering the mosque wearing shoes after using the restrooms

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Many of the military brothers in the offices wear what are called boots and enter the restrooms, which are very damp and contain impurity. Then they go and step on the tiles, which are not dirt, to the mosque. What is your opinion, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
If they wiped off the earth before entering, that is sufficient.

The questioner:
There is no dirt; they walk on marble.

The Shaykh:
They stepped on impurity, they stepped on impurity.

The questioner:
In the bathrooms, it is pleasant.

The Shaykh:
You cannot control what is in it. The urine in the place for urine is not impure. The floor of the bathroom is pure, unless someone urinates on it. The urine is in the fixture of the bathroom, the place for urine. So the default is purity. Yes.
