@Ali_Waris Our scholars mentioned to avoid cleaning by making tissue wet as it could spread the filth.– SyedahCommented Jan 18, 2017 at 5:23

@Faqirah I don't mean just using the wet tissue, but cleaning with a wet tissue first, and then cleaning with a dry one to remove water droplets.– Ali_WarisCommented Jan 18, 2017 at 5:26

All Praise to Allah Subhanahu wa Taala and blessings of Him be on Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him His family and companions,
As you have asked that if tissue paper would be sufficient to clean after urinating so our scholars have mentioned that sunnah would be fulfilled by wiping the area using the tissue paper because sunnah is to remove najasat from private parts but still doubts could be left on a mind regarding taharah so sunnah would be fulfilled but need to make sure that taharah or cleanliness is acheived,But when both are present then it is better to choose water to clean the area.
Allah swt and his Messenger knows best.
