Fear of impurity spreading if a sanitary nappy moves slightly

Submitted by user5 on Mon, 2021-06-21 15:15

Q: I would like to know my state of cleanliness because I am unsure. Due to my current illness, I have to wear specific sanitary items/nappies for urine leaks. I bought a new type of sanitary nappy and saw that the edges sat tightly around my body. However, at night when I turned, it moved a tiny amount. These nappies have inside cuffs that sit on the groin area for urine to stay inside, and then you have a tight elastic on the edge.

My question is, if the edge moved slightly, does this mean my clothes or hands are affected by the impurity if they get in contact with that area?

A: If no impurity had leaked out, then there is no need to worry.

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