Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you and reward you. Does cleaning oneself with tissues after relieving oneself suffice in place of washing and istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself)?
Answer:
If the tissues clean the area where the discharge came out and dry it, they suffice in place of water, just like using pebbles. The important thing is cleaning with the tissues.
