Wiping a drop of urine from the toilet seat

· 28 Muharram 1445 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

There was 1 drop of urine on my toilet seat and I first dried the seat then poured water from the jug carefully over the seat, while pouring the jug of water over the seat, some water leaked off the seat to the sides and down to the floor. Was this water that leaked najis? And also someone stepped on that water and walked across the house. Is the carpet in the house najis?

Answer

If you wiped the seat before pouring water, then the seat was paak. Hence, the water that spilled over onto the floor was also paak.

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