Question

Assalam-o-alaikum wa rehmatullahi wa barakatuhu. I have some following doubts which are important and need to be addresed and resolved. My doubts are as follows: 1) im a working guy who works from 8-5 and there are times usually i have to pass stool. It is the western seat toilet. Now my question is the bathroom area is very small and there is no place to hang any clothes specially trousers. What i usually do is i take off my trouser and do not remove it completely so the trouser is fallen till my feet and it touches the floor. Many people would use the same toilet but the cleaner usually comes and wipes the floor. However if my trouser touches the floor even if it is dry and i dont know how impure my trouser is can i still do wudhu and pray normally or is it must that ill have to change my trouser as it touched the bathroom floor..?? 2) the hand washing area is outside the toilet in open and i obviously have to get dressed before coming out to wash my hands. now, when i wash myself after passing the stool with my left hand ill have to pick up my trouser and atleast bring it up to button it up or close the zipper and yes sometimes my left hand does touches the trouser. What do i must do in such a scenario? Can i still just do wudhu n pray or is it a must to change my trouser? 3) third question is totally based on doubt. When i stand and pass urine and if im in a doubt that few drops have touches my trouser but this is a doubt as my trousers are dark and sometimes drops are not even visible if they have touched or not. In this case of doubt what is my duty? Im looking for solution as half of my day foes around at work and im always in doubt if my clothes are clean. I want to stay and keep myself and my clothes totally pure before praying.. Please advice!!

Answer

1) It is ok 2) Make Wudhu and pray. 3) Do not worry about this doubt.

Question

Assalam alaikum wa rahmatullahi wabarkatuhu! I need to ask a question regarding taharah.1)Usually after eating food,even if I wash my hands,there are small black particles(from the bread usually) which stay on my hand and nails..They are so small that they cannot be seen normally,unless i bring my fingers close to my eyes.I have to wash my hands very thoroughly with soap to remove them.My question is,that are these food particles small enough to be ignored during wudu and ghusl,as its likely that they prevent water from penetrating through to the skin/nails. 2)If some other impermeable substance is very small but spread out i.e there are many particles present but each particle is so small it cannot be seen easily unless one focuses,,can it be overlooked in wudu and ghusl?

Answer

1) Do not worry about what cannot be seen via the casual sight. 2) Overlook.
