Commentary
1. Extreme precaution should be taken in the matter of urine because it is impure, and it is often not visible to the naked eye. It is necessary to keep oneself away from it, and to wash it off on any contaminated garments in order to keep oneself pure. One should look for a proper place to urinate to prevent any of it splashing or returning upon oneself.
2. One should search for a soft surface of the ground to urinate, if that is not available, one should look for sloping ground, for example, to prevent any of it returning upon oneself.
