Question

My son soiled the carpet in a musjid with urine. I only became aware after leaving the musjid. By the time I returned I was unable to find the exact area that was messed. How should I now rectify?

Answer

In your discretion the approximate area that he had messed clean that area.

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