Q: My parents do not understand about najasat much. They clean the impure and the pure clothes together in the same bucket and later they do not wash the bucket and use it again for washing purposes. I have told them that the bucket becomes impure and has to be washed before used again but they are not listening to me and scolding me. When I talk about this now my exams are getting over and I have to go to my home and they wash the clothes the same way as they used to. So if I go and pray with the same clothes after knowing that they are impure will it be kufr and what should I do? Advice me.
Q: When I was in my home many years ago semen got onto the floor (not tiles but smooth floor). I knew nothing about najaasat and all so I just wiped it off with dirty cloth and there was no trace of najasat over there then and later the floor was cleaned with wet cloth and the same cloth is used for cleaning the whole house. Does this make the whole house impure? And if so then the water on the floor which gets absorbed or dried make the floor pure again? If not what should I do now?
