Purifying an impure container
Question
What is the procedure of purifying a plastic container. I have heard plastic containers cannot be purified . Is that correct?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh
An impure plastic container will be purified by washing and wiping the impurity from the container.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
