Standing in shit & praying with an unwiped bum




"A man may stand on excrement and say his prayer, on condition that his flesh not actually touch the excrement. If he sat down [to defecate] and did not wipe himself, Io, his flesh is touching excrement [and he may not say the prayer]."

The Talmud of the land of Israel (1984)
By Jacob Neusner
