Answer

In the name of Allah, as for wine, it is impure. As for alcohol, if it is in liquid form, then it is impure. As for fuqqā‘, if it is intoxicating, whether in small or large quantities, then it is also impure. Allah knows best.

Answer

In the name of Allah, yes — we have established in its proper place that alcohol is impure, so one must verify whether it has been used.

Answer

In the name of Allah, pour water on the soiled area. When the water separates from the soiled area, pour water on it again, and the body becomes pure. If the garment is soiled with urine, pour water on the soiled area, then squeeze it, and the garment becomes pure. This is when washing with a small amount of water. If washing is done with a large amount of water, equal to or exceeding the quarter, immerse the soiled part of the body in the large amount of water, remove it, then immerse it again, and it becomes pure. For clothing, immerse it in water, remove it, squeeze it, and if you do this twice, the garment becomes pure. Allah knows best.
