... about islamic issues and still be confident enough to misguide others. I would just like to clarify one of the various issues he/she has discussed. After doing Wudu for praying if a man touches a woman , he does not have to do the wudu again and a woman is not " impure". As for allowing the use of of dust to do your wudu...... it is allowed if there is no water or some medical condition restricts you to use water...then you can use sand to do wudu which is known as " tayamum".
