The questioner : And also, our Shaykh, regarding a nocturnal emission, is it obligatory to change the outer garments, or is it sufficient to take a bath and change the undergarments?
The Shaykh : Did anything affect the outer garments?
The questioner : By Allah, there is doubt here, meaning.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : I am in doubt whether anything affected them or not.
The Shaykh : Well, doubt is removed by certainty, if the doubt, meaning, is strong.
