Summary
The answer recommends separating clothes affected by najis from ordinary dirty clothes. The najis-stained items should first be washed to remove the impurity, and only then placed in the washing machine with other clothes. The purpose is to remove doubt and any feeling of uncertainty.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Dalam hal ini, saya syorkan untuk mengasingkan pakaian yang terkena najis dengan pakaian kotor biasa.
