Whispers About Impurity in Her House

Question

Salam sheikh,A wet impurity from my clothes that needed to be washed touched the top of my left shoe (not visible though) while I pick them up to the washing machine and I washed my left shoe along with showering (just to save time). The impurity has been washed away. However, later I discover that there are some black water stains in the edge of the bathtub where I washed my shoe. Those black water stains are almost certain from dust that stuck to my shoe when they touch water. Dusts are regarded as pure as far as I know. However, the entire shoe was just washed from impurity (not the dusts, something else). Now my wet hand that once dragged the shoe out to dry it touched almost everywhere in my house and I am afraid everything in my house becomes unclean and that is beyond my scope to purify everything. Is my shoe clean after the impurities were gone even if some dusts remain? What should I do?Thanks !

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

Then you are definitely affected with whispers, so repel these whispers from you and be careful of exaggeration in religion, as it entails destruction and corruption of religion as well as the worldly matters.

There is absolutely no need for this worry in all cases, as long as you have purified that impurity, then praise be to Allah.

Everything in your house and others is ruled to be pure. So avoid these whispers and do not pay any attention to them.

You should act according to the principle that all things are pure unless you are absolutely certain that it is impure; a certainty upon which you can swear.

Allah knows best.
