Carrying water for wudu' for one who goes out to the desert

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it obligatory for one who intends to go out to the desert to carry water for wudu'?

Answer:
No, it is not obligatory for one who intends to go to the desert to carry water for the sake of reaching it. Yes. Because this is an unnecessary burden, and there is no evidence for it; there is no evidence for it. So the one who goes out to graze camels or sheep and has water with him, and if he were to return to the town the camels would be lost or the sheep would be lost, or one who goes out to collect thorns or collect grass a long distance away, and if he were to return to the town the purpose for which he went out would be missed, they say this is a talisman, and there is no blame on him, if Allah wills, and he is not required to carry water. Yes.
