Question
How Can I Get Oil and Hands Impurity Completely Removed?
Answer
The basis is to wash and remove with reasonable surety. This is achieved in this day and age by washing under a tap or with a suitable cleaning substance. You seem to suffer from misgivings; wash a few times, and it will have gone. A slight odor or softness of oil can remain; this is normal. Don’t worry; ignore and let go.
Don’t Over Do
It is important to remember that Allah Most High has not made it obligatory for us to investigate such detail in matters of purity. It is not a requirement to smell one’s hands. As you have mentioned, this is highly discouraged as it leads to doubts, misgivings, and overthinking.
May Allah facilitate ease in all matters for you.
