Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Shaykh (may Allah honor you), the analogy of the pig to the dog in the matter of drinking from a vessel?
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The questioner : Is it valid?
The Shaykh : as established by the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Some jurists have analogized the pig to the dog, but this analogy is not valid.
Because Allah mentioned the pig in the Noble Qur'an, and it is well known, yet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not include it with the dog. And anything whose cause was found in the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and in which he did not rule with anything, it is not valid to rule in it with something that contradicts what was the case in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
And based on this, the impurity of the pig is like other impurities; if it drinks from a vessel, we wash it seven times.
And Allah knows best. We conclude this meeting with praise of Allah and glorification of Him. We praise Allah for this facilitation and ask Him for more of His grace. We send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions. Do you permit us to abbreviate this session, because our brother is now watching us, as if he is saying: "Hurry up." Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The questioner : Is it valid?
The Shaykh :
If a dog drinks from a vessel, it is washed seven times, one of which is with soil.
