Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to perform purification with water that has been altered by a pure substance if no other water is available?
Answer:
This is the correct view. There is no harm if it was altered by a pure substance and the substance did not dominate it; it is only a slight change, so there is no harm. This is the correct view: it is purifying. However, if the substance dominated it and it changed from the name of water to another name, then it is not permissible, because this is not water. Yes.
