Question:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My mobile screen became Najis due to some impurity and it dried later leaving no marks. Later I wash my mobile with the running water of tap. During this process 2-3 drops seeped inside through the side casing due to high flow of the water. Now I am having doubt whether the water that seeps inside was pure or impure (i.e. whether the water that seeped inside was after the washing of impurity) as I have touched those water after opening the case considering it to be pure. Is going in such minute details good in such matter?<\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We would apply the principle \u201ccertainty is not removed by doubt\u201d (Al-Yaqeenu Laa Yazoolu Bish Shakk) in your situation. Unless you are 100% certain that the phone is impure or that impure drops have seeped through the casing, you may consider your phone to be clean and pure. If you are sure that impurity had seeped inside your phone, it is better to be safe and not pray with your phone in your pocket.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Note that impurity is excused if the cumulative spread of impurity (over your body, clothes, and all items on you or inside your pockets) is less than the size of a Dirham. The total amount of aggregate impurity should not exceed the area of a Dirham if it is liquid (5.94 cm) or the weight of a dirham (4.86 g) if it is solid.[1]<\/sup> It is important to remember that you may purify smooth, nonporous surfaces (like phone screens) by simply wiping the impurity away with a dry, clean cloth. You may then use an alcohol wipe to disinfect your phone. Washing your phone under the tap would not be necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

(And if impurity gets on a mirror or a sword, it is sufficient to wipe them) with something that removes its traces, and the same applies to everything heavy that has no pores, such as glass, bone, painted utensils, and nails, because impurity does not enter them. And what is on its surface is removed by wiping.[2]<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n
