What is the ruling on water splattered from the bidet after relieving oneself, is it ritually impure (najis) or pure (tahir), and does it affect the ritual purity of the Western toilet seat?

The cure for obsessive thoughts is to ignore them and not pay attention to them, for indulging in them leads to great evil. The original ruling regarding water found on the toilet seat and splattered water is that it is pure, unless one is certain that it has come into contact with impurity and changed by it. A ruling of impurity is not made except with absolute certainty.
