What should one do if a drop of urine comes out after urinating, but it only comes out by walking?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The jurists differed on the ruling of walking or clearing one's throat after relieving oneself to ensure the complete expulsion of urine. Some deemed it obligatory, others recommended it, and yet others disliked it.
The more probable view is that this should not be made a binding religious practice. Rather, it should be done only when needed and without undue effort. So, if a person knows that urine drops will not cease except by doing so, then they should do it.
