Answer

If the clothes and towel were clean and not visibly dirty, then it is generally okay. But for going to temple, Jain tradition gives importance to shuddhi—cleanliness of body, clothes, and mind.

So if there is any doubt that the clothes or towel became unclean, sweaty, or touched something impure, it is better to wear fresh, clean clothes before going to temple.

Explanation

In Jain practice, before going to temple, devotees usually try to:

• Bathe or at least clean the body properly
• Wear clean clothes
• Avoid clothes used for sleeping, household work, or unclean activities
• Keep temple clothes separate if possible

If your husband had become fresh and sat on the bed, and you also sat on the bed, this alone does not necessarily make everything unusable. Touching a towel used after bathing in the morning is also not automatically a serious issue if it was clean and dry.

Spiritual Understanding

The main purpose is not fear, but respect. When going to temple, we prepare ourselves with purity, humility, and devotion. Clean clothes help create a respectful and peaceful state of mind for darshan, puja, and prayer.

Takeaway

If the clothes are clean, you may use them. If you feel doubt or discomfort, choose fresh clean clothes for temple so your mind remains peaceful and devotional.
