Asher Yatzar While Wearing Gloves
Question
Sorry, but if someone relieves himself while wearing gloves—for example, at work while washing dishes and the like—does he have to wash his hands? Can it be done over the gloves?
Answer
It seems that you may forgo washing your hands. Certainly if he removes the gloves. As for the reason of cleanliness, it may be that the gloves should be rinsed.
