What do you do to perform Wudu and pray when you are unsure about the purification of a urine stain on your leg after washing it, fearing the contamination of the rest of your body, your towel, and your clothes?
Your obsessive doubts have reached a concerning level, and this is one of the most dangerous afflictions that can corrupt both worldly life and the Hereafter. The most beneficial cure for it is to turn away from it and not pay attention to it, and to know that it stems from the wiles of Satan, who does not care about the soundness of your worship. Your feeling of a drop of urine exiting, if it is merely a doubt, does not necessitate purifying anything, because certainty is not removed by doubt. Even if urine did exit and you washed your leg thoroughly, you should not doubt. It is obligatory not to indulge in these obsessive doubts and to close their door, for the Sharia is built upon ease and the removal of hardship. For the removal of impurity, a strong presumption of its disappearance is sufficient. You must focus on your worship, ablution, and prayer, leaving aside any attention to obsessive doubts.
