What is the ruling if water is present but one is unable to use it because it is cold?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Here, my Shaykh, a person thinks the water is present, but it is cold, and it is easy to heat it on the way...

The Shaykh : That is, the phrase "does not find water" in terms of wording means that the water is missing, but in terms of intent and meaning, if water is found but one is unable to use it for any reason, it is also said that he does not find water.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : That is, a man is now in the desert and finds a deep well, and he sees the image of the water in the water, but he has no means to draw the water up. He is one who finds water and one who does not find water. He finds the water materially because he found it, but practically he is unable to reach it. Therefore, his ruling is the ruling of one who has lost the water.
