Is human blood pure or impure, and is it excused?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is desired is to drink. I have never found any evidence, and whoever finds evidence, let them please share it with us. Huh?
The Shaykh : Yes, this is evidence, an inference, and not a proof, even though they did not use it as evidence, but they may have used it in answering some of the brothers regarding impurity, and I answered that. Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) used to wash the blood from the face of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) during the Battle of Uhud. But this does not indicate impurity.
First, because it is merely an action, and a mere action does not indicate obligation, and therefore it does not indicate the obligation of purifying oneself from it. Second, this may have been washing for the sake of cleanliness and removing the blood from the face, because a person does not accept having blood on his face, even if it is excused and even if it is slight, and this possibility invalidates the inference. The question then.
The questioner : A hadith, Shaykh. The Companion who was praying in the battle. This is not used as evidence. In the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). And he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say to him. Meaning, something of this sort. It is considered an approval from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
The Shaykh : Yes, we used this as evidence, the prayer of the Companions in their wounds in this, this is part of it, this is an instance of it.
