I want to know what kind of istinja (paper/water/other??) is allowed in Islam in the following 2 situations:

  1. Situation 1: When someone is healthy/not sick.
  2. Situation 2: When someone is sick.

Please provide me with quran, ahadith, or other daalil.

UPDATE

I once heard that istinja with paper is allowed but I never looked after the daalil.

With water it is called "Istinja" and with paper, sand, or rock it's called "Istijmar".

Its allowed to use any or both (Isinija or/and istijmar), just enough to remove dirtiness.

In regards to being being sick or healthy, just use what is enough and what you are able to use. E.g: if using water painful or you have any other issue like if you had a surgery, then use paper.

It's not allowed to use any other thing for this, like bones, leaves, and dung etc.
