The answer

Scholars have explained the various ways in which impurity () transfers, and they have mentioned their differences regarding pardoning impurity that results from the sweat of an impure area. Many scholars hold that it is not permissible to get one’s body soiled with impurity except out of necessity. The transfer of impurity to a mosque carpet is very unlikely and resembles obsessive whispering (waswasah). The original state is that impurity does not transfer and purity remains, and certainty is not removed by doubt.
