Washing impurities before putting it in a washing machine

· 8 Safar 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Could you please let me know if it's permissible to only remove a period stain from a bedsheet with the help of wet tissues before completely washing it in the washing machine or getting it washed from a laundry shop? Will it make the washing machine and other clothes in it najis? It's extremely difficult to wash a king size bedsheet by hand.

Answer

It would have been better to wash it out first before putting it into the washing machine.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
