Doubting If One Washed After Relieving Oneself
Question
I could not remember if I washed after I went to the toilet when passing urine. What should be done in such a situation? If anything other than ignore it. What happens to my Salaah because I ignored it now and maybe before too?
Answer
Consider yourself to be paak.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
