Does the questioner consider the prickling sensation she feels after relieving herself due to pregnancy to be a baseless whisper (waswās) that should be ignored, or is it urine that necessitates purification (ṭahārah)? What is the ruling on her prayer and acts of worship if what she feels is urine and it is persistent most of the time? Is a wet tissue with some traces of ghusl (ritual bath) considered impure (najis)? What is the ruling on the tiles it fell on? And what is the ruling on the spread of impurity in the room after the maid, who suffers from waswās regarding purity, wiped it?

A person afflicted with obsessive thoughts (waswasa) must ignore them and pay no attention to them. Nothing is required of her as long as she is not certain of urine discharge. She must cast away these delusions and doubts until she attains firm certainty of urine discharge. The default is that nothing has exited if she doubts it. Therefore, the tissue that fell from her has no effect on the purity of the floor or whatever part of her body it touched, because the default is that it is pure. Religion is ease.
