Does the toilet seat become pure if drops of urine fall on it and it is wiped with a paper towel, or is water required to wipe it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If there are drops of urine on the toilet seat and they are wiped with paper, does the place become pure?
The Shaykh : What do you mean by the place of the toilet?
The questioner : I mean, you know the Western-style toilet, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Especially if it is outside, meaning in the school and such, where people urinate while standing.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : I mean, drops of urine fall on the seat, so if you wipe it with paper, does it become pure?
The Shaykh : Yes, but if the skin is wet and the purification with paper did not remove the moisture of the impurity,
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : then the effect of the remaining impurity on the seat may transfer to the wet skin. But if the skin is dry, there is no harm.
The questioner : Praise be to Allah, praise be to Allah.
