Question:
If my blanket and mattress have dried urine that is completely dry. If I sweat during the night do my clothes become impure although there are no apparent signs of urine on my clothes?
In the name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Answer:
The area where the urine has dried up needs to be cleaned thoroughly. The stained area needs to be soaked thoroughly and then scrubbed and dried until the stains are gone. Alternatively, you could flip the mattress over and that should also do the job unless the urine has soaked completely through.
If you sweat during the night and it adds moisturises to the dried urine then your clothes and possibly your body as well will become soiled. Thus, it would be necessary for you to wash your clothes and body as well. [Sunan at-Tirmizi: Hadith 143] [1]
Only Allāh Ta’ālā knows best.
