Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some scholars say that intoxicants are pure, and they argue for this by stating that the Companions poured out the jars of intoxicants in the streets of Madinah. If it had been ritually impure, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have prevented them.
Answer:
Who said that the streets contain impurities other than intoxicants? There is excrement in them, there are dogs in them, and so on. And who told you that the Companions waded through the intoxicants and that their clothes were covered in it? Who said this? Yes, the streets contain impurities other than intoxicants. Yes.
