Answer

Yes, generally it is okay to use those clothes for a temple visit if the person only touched the cupboard and did not wear or directly touch the clothes.

In Jain practice, the main concern is usually about personal cleanliness and ritual purity when going to the temple. If the clothes themselves were not worn, soiled, or directly handled in an impure condition, they do not normally need to be washed just because the cupboard was touched.

Explanation

In many Jain families, during menstruation, certain temple-related restrictions are followed as a matter of traditional discipline and ritual purity. Practices may vary by family, region, and sect.

In your case:

• If the cupboard was touched but the clothes inside were not touched directly, the clothes can generally be used.
• If the clothes were directly touched, many families would still not consider washing necessary unless there was actual physical impurity, but some stricter households may prefer washing them.
• If the clothes are clean and were not worn during periods, they are generally acceptable for temple use.

Spiritual Understanding

Jain Dharma gives great importance to inner purity, carefulness, and respect for temple discipline. Clean clothes, clean body, and a calm, devotional mind are important when visiting the temple.

At the same time, menstruation should not be understood as a moral fault or sin. Traditional restrictions are related to ritual practice and physical condition, not spiritual inferiority.

Takeaway

If only the cupboard was touched and the clothes were not worn or made unclean, they may be used for temple visit without washing. If your family or temple follows stricter rules, follow them respectfully for peace of mind.
