# Before [[Shacharit]] or [[Mincha]] (specifically the [[Shemoneh Esrei]]) one should wash hands if there was a long interruption from the time of the original washing upon rising. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 92:5 writes that if there was an interruption between the washing upon rising in the morning and praying, one should wash one's hands if water is available. This is brought down in Yalkut Yosef (Tefilah pg 330). </ref> If water is not available one does not need to wash one's hands, but only to rub them against something hard. <ref> Mishna Brurah 92:26 writes that since one cannot find water for Stam hands (they are in doubt as to their cleanliness) one does not need to wash them, but should rub them against that which cleanses them. </ref> | # Before [[Shacharit]] or [[Mincha]] (specifically the [[Shemoneh Esrei]]) one should wash hands if there was a long interruption from the time of the original washing upon rising. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 92:5 writes that if there was an interruption between the washing upon rising in the morning and praying, one should wash one's hands if water is available.

# If one touched an unclean part of the body or went to the bathroom, one must search and find water to wash one's hands for [[Shemoneh Esrei]]. <ref> Mishna Brurah 92:27 writes that this applies only if one has Stam hands(they are in doubt as to their cleanliness). Shulchan Aruch is lenient and states one does not have to search for water if it is not around, however if there is a certain impurity such as if one touched an unclean area or went to the bathroom, one certainly must wash hands. Kaf Hachayim 4:86 writes that if one is in the middle of the [[Shemoneh Esrei]] and one realizes one touched something that would obligate one to wash, one should just wipe one's hands on "midi diminakei" such as one's clothes, wood, or stone. </ref> | # If one touched an unclean part of the body or went to the bathroom, one must search and find water to wash one's hands without a bracha for [[Shemoneh Esrei]]. <ref> Mishna Brurah 92:27 writes that this applies only if one has Stam hands(they are in doubt as to their cleanliness).

# However, in order to say [[Brachot]], [[Kriyat Shema]], or learn Torah one does not need to wash one's hands. <ref> Mishna Brurah 92:25 writes that implied in the Shulchan Aruch is, that not only does [[Shemoneh Esrei]] require clean hands, but for [[learning Torah]], [[Kriyat Shema]] or [[Brachot]] Stam hands (they are in doubt, they are not certainly clean or unclean) are sufficient. However, Mishna Brurah also quotes the Pri Megadim 4, who writes that [[Kriyat Shema]] does need washed hands. </ref> | # However, in order to say [[Brachot]], [[Kriyat Shema]], or learn Torah one does not need to wash one's hands. <ref> Mishna Brurah 92:25 writes that implied in the Shulchan Aruch is, that not only does [[Shemoneh Esrei]] require clean hands, but for [[learning Torah]], [[Kriyat Shema]] or [[Brachot]] Stam hands (they are in doubt, they are not certainly clean or unclean) are sufficient.
