The ruling on walking over dry excrement
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We have been busy for you, so let everyone who comes be accommodated.
The Shaykh:
It is not pure, but if it is dry and does not stick to the foot, if it is dry, go ahead. Dry excrement or dry dung that does not stick to the foot is different from wet, which sticks to it and leaves its trace on it. So if you walk over dry donkey dung, mule dung, or human excrement, it does not harm your foot. Rather, it harms it if it is wet.
The questioner:
May Allah conceal [our faults].
The Shaykh:
Yes, put the slippers in a nylon bag and on the stove. Yes. What is not right, this is excessive effort, what is not right, yes.
