The answer

Istibra' is seeking to clear oneself of anything discharged from the two private parts until one is certain that no trace remains. It also involves seeking to clear the male organ of any remaining urine by moving it and shaking it.

The described method of squeezing the male organ with the left hand onto the right palm is not among the legislated forms of istibra'. Some jurists have considered it an innovation (bid'ah), and it also involves touching the male organ with the right hand, which is forbidden by religious law.
