Question

What is the size of dirham in cm? I have searched a lot but I didn’t understand clearly. So please tell me in cm.

Answer

If you are referring to the spreading of impurity to the extent of a dirham then it is the circumference of the inner part of the palm.

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