And is it sufficient for a person, while in the lavatory, to wipe his penis with earth until the trace of urine disappears, with any moisture that emerges after he stands being excused? If it is not excused, then why does a person not need such exertion in water bathrooms\u2014given that it is possible that what comes after standing up in an ordinary (dry) latrine might also come there, but the water does not leave one an opportunity to notice the moisture because the organ has not dried? And what is meant by what has been reported\u2014that the Companions would sprinkle their garments after urination, or what is the meaning of that? And on what basis did the scholars determine that urine is a severe impurity about which even a small amount is not excused? Such moisture that appears after much wiping in the lavatory and comes seconds after standing may be something natural for everyone, and something that cannot be fully avoided except by the hardship of holding the penis\u2014an act not transmitted from the Messenger of Allah (May Allah bless him and his family and grant them peace) or from any of the Imams. Can it be deemed a necessity like urinary incontinence (sals al-bawl) or the case of a woman with chronic bleeding (al-musta\u1e25\u0101\u1e0dah)?
