Question

I saw urine on the floor so I was wiping it but did not finish it when someone stepped on it but at that time color of water was not like urine but I was not finished. After I finished the same person again stepped on the clean wet floor. Will the floor again become impure or not?

Answer

If there was no impurity on his feet and shoe, the floor does not become napaak.

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