Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In our country, there is a difference between a small vessel (qullah), a jar, and a large jar (zayr). So when it is said in our country that this small vessel is intended to be a small clay pot the size of one bucket,
Answer:
The criterion is what this small vessel holds. If it holds two and a half *zurb*, then that is what is intended regarding water for purification. But if it is less than two and a half *zurb*, no. It is not correct that small vessels may differ, but the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in the hadith specified the small vessels of Hajar only.
