Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani
I am a college student who has to dissect a cat in lab this week (and for approximately 4 more weeks). After participating in the dissection, do I need to make ghusl before I can pray? Or am I considered unclean after this and have to renew my wudu?
Walaikum assalam,
Dissecting a cat (or washing a dead body) do not affect one’s wudu and do not require ghusl either.
Walaikum assalam,
Faraz Rabbani
