Is there a specific ruling limiting the washing of pig impurity to seven washings?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding the specification of washing pig impurity with seven washings, is there a text for this, or is it an analogy based on the dog? It is an analogy based on the dog, because the pig is more deserving of this than the dog in terms of impurity; it is more impure than the dog. Indeed, it is an abomination. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:
or the flesh of swine - for indeed, it is impureأَوْ لَحْمَ خِنزِيرٍ فَإِنَّهُ رِجْسٌ
[Al-An'am 6:145]


Answer:
Yes, that is sufficient, and Allah knows best. May Allah send blessings and peace upon the trustworthy one. Amen.
