The question

Are the fatwas chosen regarding ritual impurity – including that it is not transmitted unless certainly seen, that it is transmitted only from a wet impure body, that underwear should be sprinkled with water after urinating and considering any sensation of water discharge, and that surfaces and objects are purified by the sun and wind – found in the schools of jurisprudence? And can an impure piece of clothing be purified by submerging it in a cooking pot filled with water?

The answer

Answer Summary:

1. Doubt about the transmission of impurity has no effect; rather, certainty is required.

2. Sprinkling water on the private parts and trousers is recommended for those who have obsessive thoughts about something exiting after performing ’ (washing after using the toilet), in order to ward off these obsessions.

3. An impure place is not purified except by pure water, according to the majority of scholars.

4. Immersing an impure piece of clothing in a container of water until the physical impurity disappears does not purify it, according to many scholars. Some, however, are of the opinion that it does become pure.
