The ruling on performing wudu with Dandan water designated for drinking
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it true that Shaykh Ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) forbade performing wudu with Dandan water designated for drinking?
Answer:
Never. The Shaykh said that it is permissible to perform wudu with it and permissible to take a full bath with it, because it is water. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:[Al-Furqan 25:48] This is a general statement regarding the water of Zamzam and others. So there is no basis for saying that it is not permissible to purify oneself with it. No one has ever held this view. They only disliked using it for istinja' (cleaning oneself after relieving oneself). Some scholars dislike using it for istinja' only, but as for wudu and ghusl, yes, it is permissible.

وَأَنزَلْنَا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً طَهُورًا
