Are the excretions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pure?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : O Shaykh, are the excretions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), such as urine and feces, excluded from the general ruling?

The Shaykh : No, whatever is established for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is established for the Ummah. So his urine is like that of others, and likewise what comes out of him.

The questioner : [Regarding] one of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when she drank his urine?

The Shaykh : This is a rare issue. Therefore, if we did not hold this view, it would not be valid to cite the action of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as evidence that semen is pure. If we said that his excretions are pure, it would not be valid to cite [this evidence], and [knowing that] he (peace and blessings be upon him) used pebbles for cleaning and water for istinja' and purification.
And rare cases are not considered, and the correct view is that the excretions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) are like those of others: what is pure in others is pure in him, and what is impure in others is impure in him.
