Wiping off a splash of urine with wet hands

· 12 Rajab 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I felt a splash of urine above my ankle, but I could not wash it immediately because my socks would get wet, so I wiped it thoroughly with my wet hand and decided to wash that area during wudhu. During wudhu, I forgot to wash it and then offered Jumuah salaah. Will my salaah be valid?

Answer

If there was water on your hands and you wiped the splash off then it is clean.

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