The questioner is advised to ignore these whispers () and strive to get rid of them, because succumbing to them leads to great evil. Regarding the transfer of impurity from a garment, if the questioner is not certain that theen-najis (impure) spot touched something else while one of them was wet or moist, then the original state of purity remains. Impurity is not judged to have transferred merely by doubt. However, if certainty of contact is established, then there is a difference of opinion regarding the transfer of impurity, and the one afflicted by waswas may adopt the easier opinion.
