Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: What is the criterion for identifying what is impure?
Answer:
Yes, you have questions. What is the water that is impure? What has been affected by it from the body, from the clothes, and from the person? And what has been affected by it from the body, he means urine, gas, blood, or other impurities. As for the water, the correct view is that it does not become impure when an impurity falls into it, except if its color, taste, or smell changes due to the impurity; then it becomes impure. As for if an impurity falls into it and it does not change, the correct view is that it is pure.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh.
