Is the using of dry-cleaners permissible?

Question

Is it permissible to clean ones clothes at the dry-cleaners?

Answer

According to our understanding, commercial dry cleaners use one washing chemical for many washes. The chemical is not changed after every wash.

If an impure garment is put in such a lot, it will not become pure. In fact, the other clothes in the same lot will become impure.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
