Is pure water that which has no color, no smell, and no taste?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, pure water is that which has no color, no smell, and no taste. He says: And seawater has a salty taste.

Answer:
Who said that? No one said that it is that which has no color, no smell, and no taste. It is not the impurity; rather, if the impurity has a color, or the impurity has a smell, or the impurity has a taste, that is what is intended. As for a color that is not impure, or a smell that is not impure, that does not harm. Yes. This is its natural state. Pure water is that which remains in its natural state, whether sweet, bitter, salty, hot, or cold; it remains in its natural state.
