Question:
This questioner asks: What is meant by istinja' and istijmar, and when are they performed?

Answer:
Answer: Istinja' is done with water by washing the private parts after a state of ritual impurity; it is washed with water. This is istinja'. As for istijmar, one wipes the exit with stones or whatever serves as their substitute that cleanses the exit. It is done with three stones or whatever serves as their substitute, or with three cleansing wipes.
