Is there any shia jurist or quite a number of them who consider human corpse not impure ?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Human corpse is impure after it becomes cool, and before performing the ritual bathing (Ghusl al-Mayyit) on it, but it is Taahir (Pure) immediately after death when it is still warm, and after performing the ritual bathing in it. This is among all Shia jurists.

If someone is uncertain whether their trousers are impure due to a possible splash of urine or just water, should they wash them and repeat their prayers, or is the doubt sufficient to consider them clean?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

The doubt in impurity itself does not mean that the item is impure unless and until you have certain knowledge or concrete evidence that it is impure. You don't need to repeat your prayer just because of the doubt. If you want to repeat that prayer out of precaution, you can do so but it is not obligatory.

When washing the anus in the toilet, if some clear water from the hand gets on the clothes, is the clothing considered impure even though the water appears clean?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

After the removal of the stool and washing the place, the clear water is Not Najis.

After the Karbala events, when the prisoners were taken to Sham, was the food they received from their captors considered not from the Kafirs, since their captors were supporters of Yazid? If they are viewed as Muslims, then who qualifies as Kafirs?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Ahlul Bayt (AS) who were captured after Karbala had carried with them their own grains and did not take from enemies any food.

Kafir is every non believer in Allah (SWT) and the Prophet (SAWA).
