Answer:
In the
name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness.
Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray,
none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no
person, no grave, no prophet, no imam,
no dai, nobody!) worthy of
worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His
slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Brother, the organ of the men, whereby the urine is discharged has a long
tube, therefore it is possible that even
after one has washed his private area clean after relieving himself; a few drops may remain in the tube which may
drop after one gets up or moves. If
one is convinced that some urine drops have fallen after he has cleansed
himself, he should wash his private
parts and the area of the clothes the urine drops might have touched
again, do the wudu and perform the
prayers. There is absolutely no need to
do the full ghusl.
But if
one only has a doubt, or constantly
doubts whether some drops might have fallen or not, then one should not let the doubt bother
him. In Islam, the determination of impurity is not on
doubts; but rather on belief and
absolute conviction. Everything will be
considered pure, unless one has absolute
conviction that an impurity has touched it.
If you have a doubt that something impure has touched you, then one should not act on these doubts; but rather act only if one is absolutely
convinced that an impure thing has touched it.
Either
way, there is absolutely no need to do
the full bath or ghusl to purify yourself.
If you are convinced that a few drops of urine have been
discharged, you may wash your private
parts and the area of the clothes where the drops might have touched, do the wudu,
and make yourself available for prayers.
Reported Hadrat Ali ibn Abi Taalib (r.a.) , “I used to have a
great deal of prostatic fluid flowing, so I asked a man to ask the Prophet
(saws) about it (as I was shy to ask
him, due to my relationship with him through his daughter). He asked him and the Prophet (saws), said,
"Make ablution and wash your penis." (Related by al-Bukhari and
others.)
But if
one has a health condition whereby some drops of liquid are uncontrollably and
intermittently released from his urinary tract, and it thus becomes extremely
difficult for him to stay in the state of wudu; then it would be sufficient for
such a person to first perform the wudu and then take a handful of water and
sprinkle them over his private parts and clothes where the fluid might have
touched and not bother about it in the least, and make oneself available for
prayer.
Al-Athram narrated, "I was bothered by a great deal of madhi
(urinary fluid), so I went to the Prophet (saws), and informed him of
this. He (saws) said 'It is sufficient for you to take a handful
of water and sprinkle over it."'
Sahl ibn Hanif said, "I used to suffer from excessive
amounts of madhi (urinary fluid). I used to make lots of ghusl because of
it. So I mentioned this to the Messenger
of Allah (saws) and he said, 'It is sufficient to take a handful of water and
sprinkle it over your clothes wherever the fluid appears."
Whatever
written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance,
and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone
Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
Your Brother in Islam,
Burhan
