Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the ruling if the urine of a male child who is several months old falls on my clothes?
The Shaykh : The correct view in this matter is that the urine of a male child who is fed on milk is light in its ritual impurity.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And it is sufficient to purify it by sprinkling, which is to pour water over it until it is covered, without rubbing and without wringing.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Even if the water does not flow to the ground from the washing?
The Shaykh : Yes, that is so, because it is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that a small boy was brought to him and he placed him on his lap.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : So the boy urinated on him, and he called for water and poured it over the urine, but he did not wash it.
