Question

I do my laundry once a week using the coin washing machines. The problem is "after wet dream is i dont wash my clothes as they will not dry. I just keep them in the garbage bag and keep them on one side in the bathroom. When i do my laundry, i wash these dirty clothes also". I want to know if this is correct way of doing.

Answer

If the coin washing machine operates with chemicals and it is changed only after a few washes, then the impure clothes will not become pure.

If the coin washing machine operates with water and the water is changed in every wash, then the impure clothes will become pure even though it was not washed before putting them in the washing machine.
