Washing clothes in a washing machine
Question
Please can you tell me if all my laundry clothes are pure or not. I did a washing machine laundry in a western washing machine with 4 rinse and spins but one item which was soiled with sweat left residue of possibly the sweat itself or the washing powder/conditioner. I am really worried now and I feel as though all my other clothes won't be clean and then my namaz won't be accepted or that through wetness I may be transferring impurity everywhere. It's difficult to do the whole laundry again as it takes over an hour to wash it and don't want to endure problems with family memebers as to why i am rewashing clothes. I'm worried because although none of the clothes had any major impurity I think, there maybe possibility there was. Please advise if my laundry clothes are pure or not.
Answer
The clothes are paak.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
