Touching a wallet with impure hands

Q: If a wallet was touched with impure hands and a person keeps that wallet in their pocket and performed salaah with it, what is the validity of their salaah? 

I’m not sure what the impurity was as a few years ago it would be difficult to control impurities and most of the things I touched would become impure. I did wash/wipe the wallet but I’m not sure how long after that was.

A: If no impurity had come onto the wallet, then regard the wallet as paak.

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