This happened last year, and you’re asking now? You probably washed your hand enough to remove whatever impurity was on it, and probably did so using pure, unmixed water at one point. Next time for future reference, wash your hand properly or take Imam Malik’s ruling.

Last year my, neighbors dog ran up to me and licked my hand. Therefore, taking a dispenation in the Shafi school, I washed my hand with soap 7 times. In other words, I put soap on my hand and then washed it 7 times with water.

Is what I did correct? Or did I have to mix the soap with water and THEN wash my hand with it, in the same way that one mixes earth with water to the same thing?

Any clarification would be much appreciated.

Who is imam al-Mahamali? Could you give a short bio please?

This is the sketched brief introduction to lesson 3:

This lesson will cover the first three arkān: An- niyyah (the intention), standing in the Salāh, and Takbīratul-Ihrām which will include an in depth study on the sunnah issue of ‘raising one’s hands’ (rafa’ yadayn).

I wanted to concentrate on rafa’ yadayn utilizing the arguments, specifically, of Al-Bayhaqi in his Khilaafiyaat – using the mukhtasar of course, as well as the supplemental material provided by other A’immah of the Shafi’i school.
