Explanation of the hadith: (None of you should urinate in stagnant water), and clarification of the position of the Zahiri school regarding this.

The Shaykh : A second example: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade urinating in stagnant water." What did the Zahiri say? If one urinates in a container and then pours the urine from that container into stagnant water, it is permissible. He urinated in a container in the water, in an empty container, and then poured this urine from the container into the stagnant water; this is permissible. What is not permissible is urinating directly in the stagnant water. Now, the goal is the same; whether directly or indirectly; no, that is not how it is. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) "forbade urinating in stagnant water." The one who urinated in the empty container, linguistically, it is not said that he urinated in the stagnant water. Linguistically, it is correct. But what is the wisdom, what is the goal of the Messenger's (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibition of urinating in stagnant water? It is very clear: either out of fear that it will become ritually impure, or at least out of fear that it will become soiled. One of the two must be the case. Now, this fear and that one are present whether by the method of urinating directly in the stagnant water or in an empty container and then emptying it into the stagnant water. And what is the result of that? A very distressing result: that these sewers that are connected to the flowing pure water, I do not care about them, why? Because the urine was not poured directly, but rather indirectly. No one would say that...
