Making Wudhu With a Bucket

Q: Is it allowed to make wudhu with a bucket, thus in the beginning of wudhu you wash the hands without putting the hands in the water in the bucket, and thereafter you take water by putting the hand in the bucket for washing face, mouth, nose,hands and arms, wiping the head, ear, neck, and washing feet. Thus each time one will put the hand in the bucket used water will mingle with the water in the bucket.

The Private Organ Touching One's Underwear Without Washing

Q: If one urinates, then he does his best to release all remaining drops by pressing under the scrotum and squeezing the private organ few times, thereafter he wipes the front of the private organ with a dry tissue. Then he wraps a tissue around it. Now the person sleeps and when he gets up he sees the tissue was scrolled away during sleep and the private organ did touch his underwear. Is his underwear considered impure? i.e. if the private organ is wiped off with a dry tissue without washing, and the dry private organ does touch the underwear, is the underwear impure?

Touching a Pigskin Leather Jacket

Q: If one touches with ones hand or clothes for example a pigskin leather jacket, does his hand/clothes become impure? If one is praying and someone joins the saff who is wearing a pigskin leather jacket, and during the Salaah the pigskin leather jacket does touch the person for a duration of one rukun does his Salaah become nullified?

Toilet Paper as an Alternative to Water

Q: Can tissue paper be used as an alternative of water for istinjaa? That is to clean the specific areas while using toilet. If yes, then is there any specific method to be followed, or just clean until we get natural satisfaction? Please confirm in all of the possible conditions:
a) If  clean water is available.
b) If there is doubt there the water available may not be clean.
c) If no water is available at the spot.

Experiencing a Discharge Continuously

Q: I have had a vaginal discharge that is whitish yellowish/cream in colour. This discharge has been for years. After the birth of my child it is still there. It is very uncomfortable since my underwear gets stained and I just feel napaak. The gynaecologist says that it is normal... But I don't know whether I am paak or not. I have been changing before each namaaz or when I feel the discharge and the salah time set. This is very difficult especially when going out. I will be going for umrah inshallah. PLEASE advise me what I should do since to make whudhu and change at every salaah is very difficult in the haram. PLEASE advise.
