Q: Are men allowed to use a urinal which is private? Meaning nobody else can see them.
Q: I am facing a weird issue for the past couple of weeks. I have observed that while performing istinja on an Indian toilet, the water splashes from the toilet surface and there is a chance that these splashes might end up on one's body, clothes or shoes.
What is the Islamic ruling for such splashes? From my part, I try very hard to avoid water from splashing but the water ends up splashing anyways.
Q: I suffer with bad thoughts that come into my mind during istinja. I always wipe and check to see if discharge came out and would see white discharge. It would worry me if mani came out and so I would check after passing urine and before cleaning. Sorry for this amount of detail. Because I used to feel discharge coming out I would check again and again.
1. Should I stop checking and always consider it to be mazi and not mani?
2. Also, in order for it to be mani, shouldn't the volume of the amount be a lot. I always feel it's a tiny bit. That's why I've taken it to be mazi as it's time consuming and bringing back waswas in to my life.
Q:
1. I want to know if wiping with a dry tissue then wiping with a wet tissue during istinjaa is okay before making wudu and praying because I read that using a wet tissue spreads the najasat. What if I wipe with a dry tissue first?
2. I notice sometimes that the water from the toilet seat splashes back after I flush but I am not certain if it came to me or not, so is this water najis?

Q: When I first started doing istibraa after going toilet about 2 years ago, I never used to do it properly for about the first 8 months. I used to go to the toilet and without waiting for all the urine drops to come out I used to wash myself. At that time I didn't even realise that I had to wait for all the urine drops to come out. After washing myself I would then wrap some toilet paper around my private part and after about half an hour I used to take out the toilet paper but I never used to wash myself again. I didn't realise that I had to wash myself again.
My question is, do I have to make qadha of all my salaahs in this period of about 8 months? I also was imam for many salaahs.
Q: I am living in Saudi Arabia. The Kalimah (La ilaha Illallahu Muhammad ur RasoolulAllah) is written on the one riyal note. I want to know if I can take it to the toilet while it is in my pocket or wallet?
