380. Abū Hurairah narrated that a Bedouin entered the Masjid while the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was sitting in it. He prayed two Rak'ah, then said: "O Allāh! Have mercy on me and Muhammad, and do not have mercy on anyone (else) along with us!" So the Prophet ﷺ said: "You have indeed constrained something very wide!" Thereafter, he urinated in a corner of the Masjid, so the people rushed
towards him, but the Prophet ﷺ restrained them, and said: "You have indeed been sent to make things easy, and you have not been sent to make things difficult. Pour over it a bucket of water," or (he said), "...a container of water." (Sahih)

Commentary
If some part of the ground is defiled with urine, it should be cleaned by pouring water upon it. There is no need to excavate any of the area; pouring water upon it is enough. People should be dealt with politely, and with wisdom, and they should be educated, especially in the basic knowledge of faith and religion.
