The Ruling on Performing Wudu with Rose Water

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it valid to perform wudu with rose water, given that it has acquired

Answer:
from what? From the rose, given that it has acquired a taste after being added to it. This rose water is not water; it is rose water, which is called an added substance. The purifying agent is pure water, that which is not added to anything, yes. So this rose water is extracted from the rose. Water extracted from the rose or distilled from the rose, yes. And the car’s specifications. If the questioner’s intention is that it is original purifying water onto which rose water is poured, he says this does not affect it, because the rose is pure. But if his intention is that it is originally rose water and there is no purifying water with it, then this becomes pure water with which one does not purify oneself, because it is not water but rather a liquid substance extracted from the rose tree or from the rose flowers, yes.
