Question

If I place my paak dry clothes in a bucket which was najis a month ago but is dried now. Can I use those clothes or they become najis as well? Theres no visible najasah in the bucket. It became najis because I touched it with najis hands and put najis clothes a month ago.

Answer

If the clothes and bucket are dry, the clothes will not become naa paak.

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