Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on one who uses his hand to relieve himself of his need?
Answer:
We observe this. And one does not need to wash it before relieving himself of his need. Nothing has been reported regarding this; nothing has been reported regarding this. What was reported is only for the one who wants to dip his hand in the vessel. As for if he intends to use his hand for another of his needs, such as taking something, eating something, writing something, or doing something with his hand, then no, the command does not cover that; the command does not cover that. And if he washes it for the sake of cleanliness, this is not prohibited. Yes. But it does not fall under the meaning of the hadith. Yes. Yes. The hand mentioned refers to both hands. Yes, the hand mentioned refers to both hands. Yes.
But the common practice is that one scoops with his right hand, so he washes the hand he intends to insert, whether it is one hand or both hands.
