Do Dried Semen on Clothes or Sheet Require Them to Be Washed?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalamualaikum, My question is, whether dried semen on clothes or sheet requires them to be washed? can we pray with the clothes if it is totally dried and one has scratched and removed it with another clean cloth? what if it leaves a small mark or stain? does it then need washing? and how should one make such clothes pak? Jazakumulahu khairan

Answer

(Fatwa: 774/617/B=1431)

In our time, it is necessary to wash such clothes or sheets which are smeared with dry semen. Scratching is not enough. No matter if spots or scars remain after washing. Such clothes will be clean after they are washed thrice.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
