What is the ruling on praying in clothes afflicted with urine that was deliberately expelled, or with urine that was involuntarily discharged when one tried to hold it in?

Prayer is not valid with clothes defiled by urine or anything else, whether intentionally or unintentionally, because the purity of the body and place are conditions for the validity of prayer. It is not necessary to change clothes; rather, it is sufficient to purify the defiled spot with water until the impurity is removed. The questioner, who suffers from obsessive doubts (waswasa), is advised to disregard them and not intentionally try to excrete urine, as this is a trick from Satan.
