Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullah, Ahsan Allahu ilayk ya Ustadh! Is it ok to wipe with paper (3 times minimum) on body parts other than what we do for istijmar (in private parts). Like hands and so on?

The scholars differ: Shaykh Ibn Baz held that impurity anywhere other than the private parts is removed only with water, and Shaykh Ibn Uthaymin held that once the impurity is completely gone by any means, the place is pure, and I lean more towards the fatwa of Imam Ibn Uthaymeen.
