long story short i used to not pray nor care about urine impurities. I also had a cat who had kittens and oeed everywhere. Basically, i never cleaned any impurities. I have extremely sweaty hands and feet so the impurities got transferred to my furniture. I might be moving to the middle east so i am planning on starting fresh and start praying. The problem is, my furniture is new so my parents refuse to sell it aamd buy new furniture because there is no profit. I am really stressed out and i dont know what to do, can you give me some advice? I am 15 years old
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
We advise that you start praying without further delay. Do not wait to go to the Middle East before commencing your prayers. Praying the 5 times daily Salah timeously will invoke the mercy of Allah. Allah will grant Barakah (blessings) in your life and you will find true happiness amongst numerous other benefits.
As for the furniture, it will remain clean and pure until the traces of impurity can be seen. You should avoid having undue and unnecessary doubts as they are from Shaytaan.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

ولو ابتل فراش أو تراب نجسان من عرق نائم أو بلل قدم وظهر أثر النجاسة في البدن والقدم تنجسا وإلا فلا كما لا ينجس ثوب جاف طاهر لف في ثوب نجس رطب لا ينعصر الركب لو عصر ولا ينجس ثوب رطب بنشره على أرض نجسة يابسة… على نجاسة فأصابت الثوب إلا أن يظهر أثرها فيه ويطهر متنجس بنجاسة مرئية بزوال عينها ولو بمرة على الصحيح ولا يضر بقاء أثر شق زواله وغير المرئية بغسلها ثلاثا والعصر كل مرة.
