Does sin accrue to one who exchanges clothes that he has washed without informing the seller? And is there any advice for getting rid of obsessive-compulsive disorder related to cleanliness?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
You must inform the seller that you washed the clothes before returning them. If he agrees, then there is no blame. Otherwise, come to an agreement with him for appropriate compensation for any defect or damage that occurred. The cure for obsessive-compulsive disorder is to disregard it, seek help from Allah, and supplicate frequently.
