Dried impurities
Question
If stool gets dried with wind and stays there for a week untill it becomes solid in such a way that you could crush it, in this case if water touches the dry stool and then gets to your clothe, will your clothe become inpure (napaak)
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
The stool will still be impure.[1] If water touches the stool, the water will become impure. If such water soils the clothing, the clothing will become impure.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
