Is drinking urine out of dire necessity analogous to intoxicants?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Al-Zuhri’s current statement regarding urine: “It is not permissible to drink the urine of people because of its extreme filthiness; for it is an impurity.” Is this an analogy (qiyas) that he wants us to apply to intoxicants?
Answer:
This indicates that he does not see analogy (qiyas) in the case of prohibited things, for there is no analogy in the prohibited; one is restricted to what has been transmitted regarding them. However, this is not accepted.
Q: Did Al-Zuhri intend to make an analogy?
A: His intention was that urine is not analogous to carrion; the dispensment (rukhsah) is not analogous to carrion specifically.
