| Aug 7, 2015 at 17:02 | comment | added | Salmononius2 | @DoubleAA IIRC, you were historically not actually required to remove Tefillin when urinating, covering it was enough. Seemingly urinating wasn't considered as "disgusting" as flatulating. | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 16:56 | comment | added | Double AA♦ | @Salmononius2 (first comment) So why isn't urination a problem? | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 16:44 | comment | added | Salmononius2 | AFAIK, no one mentions the requirement of needing to clean oneself before continuing prayer, while they do mention waiting for the smell to pass. I'm assuming that if cleaning was required, that would be mentioned too. You're right about the terminology 'Guf Naki', which seems to imply some sort of physical uncleanliness. | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 16:32 | comment | added | hazoriz | @Salmononius2 how do you know you do not need to? and why is it called a clean body (guf noki)? | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 16:31 | comment | added | Salmononius2 | As an aside, it likely isn't due to physical particals stuck to the body, for if that was the reason, you'd then need to wipe before continuing praying. | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 16:30 | comment | added | Salmononius2 | What about simply: "It's impolite and inappropriate conduct while wearing an object as holy as Tefillin?" | |

I assume this is what was meant.
