Question:
What is the amount of water sufficient to remove impurity from the ground?
Answer:
It must be in excess, just as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Pour a bucket of water over his urine," meaning a bucket of water, where the bucket is more than the urine. That is, one pours more water than the amount of urine until it removes it. So, if one pours more water than the liquid impurity, and if it has a substance, the substance is removed and lowered, and then water is poured on the place where the substance was, in the form of moisture, in an amount greater than it, to remove its effect.
