# After having washed one’s hands on [[Shabbat]], it’s permissible to dry them on a towel, however, it’s preferable to rub one’s hands together to dry them before drying them on a towel. <Ref>S”A 302:10 writes that after having washed one’s hands, it’s preferable to rub one’s hands together before drying them on a towel. The Rama 302:10 writes that the minhag is to be lenient not to be concerned for this issue. The Mishna Brurah 302:50 explains that this is based on the Rabbeinu Tam quoted by Tosafot [[Shabbat]] 111b who says that it is permissible because even though one is getting the towel wet since it is effectively dirtying the towel there is no issue of Mechabes (cleaning). Nonetheless, because there are some authorities who are strict it’s a good practice to be strict. The Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] vol 2 pg 89) agrees that it’s permissible but preferable to follow Shulchan Aruch. </ref> | # After having washed one’s hands on [[Shabbat]], it’s permissible to dry them on a towel, however, it’s preferable to rub one’s hands together to dry them before drying them on a towel. <Ref>S”A 302:10 writes that after having washed one’s hands, it’s preferable to rub one’s hands together before drying them on a towel.

# If one’s hands became soiled with mud one may not clean them off by wiping them on a towel or handkerchief however one may wipe them on a rag which one isn’t concerned about cleaning. <Ref>S”A 302:11 writes that if one's hands became soiled with mud one may wipe them on a hard cloth used to hold thorns but not a regular hand towel because one may come to clean the towel. Mishna Brurah 302:57 writes that a rag which one is not concerned about is just like a hard cloth and one may wipe one's hand on it. | # If one’s hands became soiled with mud one may not clean them off by wiping them on a towel or handkerchief however one may wipe them on a rag which one isn’t concerned about cleaning. <Ref>S”A 302:11 writes that if one's hands became soiled with mud one may wipe them on a hard cloth used to hold thorns but not a regular hand towel because one may come to clean the towel.
