Question

If our pants touched the car wheels before we clean the car, should we wash the pants? What if the pants have touched other things(eg. the car seat),should we wash them too? (The dog carcass was broken to pieces due to road accident. )

Answer

1. The washing of the wheels of the car is sufficient to clean the wheels from the impurities of the dog.
2. If the pants touched the carcass of the dog and no impurities of the dog came on the pants, the pants will be pure. There is no need to wash the car seat.
