Regarding the honor of the tefillin shel yad.

Question

 Is it okay to clean the toilet and the ceramic around it with my right hand, even if there’s waste there? And what about using the middle finger of my left hand to help with the cleaning? 

Answer

Shalom uVracha,

The ruling of our teacher, HaGaon Rav Amram Fried shlit”a, is to permit cleaning either with the right hand or with the middle finger of the left hand.
