Continuation of the explanation of the author's statement: "And the ritual impurity of a man is not removed by a small amount of pure water with which a woman has been secluded for complete purification from ritual impurity."
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This means that if you take a full ritual bath from major ritual impurity, the water does not become impure due to the major ritual impurity, so it remains pure. The correct view is that if a person purifies himself with water that a woman has been secluded with, his purification is valid and his ritual impurity is removed. The source of his hadith is the same; if we were to rely on the statement of the Companions that there is no harm, then our reliance on the hadith while leaving aside part of it is not something we can do. What is your opinion if she was secluded with the water from the urinal?
The questioner : Renewed.
The Shaykh : Renewed. It is not leftover water, and it does not exist in the first place. Even if we said it is in the tank, the water cannot return to it. They say that this is a matter of worship (ta'abbudi), meaning it is among the matters whose cause we do not know, so we accept it solely on the basis of worship.
The questioner : I mean, if she was secluded for cleaning herself after relieving herself, for example, is it permissible for me to perform ablution with the leftover water? Or if I performed ablution, is it not permissible? Very strange, isn't it?
The Shaykh : Her seclusion for cleaning herself after relieving herself may be closer to making it impure, but even so, he says it does not harm. In any case, may Allah reward you. We are now stating their words and clarifying that they are weak. The weak opinion becomes weaker the more it is repeated. Yes.
The questioner : O Shaykh, what is the argument of the school of thought regarding the beginning of seclusion?
The Shaykh :"And if its taste changes, and if its taste changes, or its smell, or its color" The author has now moved on to pure water (al-tahir), which is not purifying (ghayr al-mutahhir). So we look now; we promised that we would divide pure water (al-tahur). The author divided pure water into disliked pure water, non-disliked pure water, and pure water that does not remove a man's ritual impurity. First, the non-disliked pure water is what the author (may Allah have mercy on him) said is pure water. The disliked pure water, the author began with it before anything else: "If it changes by something mixed with it, such as a piece of camphor or oil, or with water salt, or if heated by an impure substance, it is disliked" This is one. Then he said: "And if it changes by its standing, or by what is difficult to protect the water from, such as what grew in it or tree leaves, or by being near carrion, or if heated by the sun, or by a pure substance, it is not disliked" This is the non-disliked pure water. "And if it is used for a recommended purification, it is disliked" This should be placed with the first category. It is placed with the first category, so the disliked pure water consists of four things: if it changes by something mixed with it, or with water salt, or if heated by an impure substance, or if used for a recommended purification. Four things. The disliked pure water became four things. If it changes by something mixed with it, or with water salt, or if heated by an impure substance, how many is that? Three. And if used for a recommended purification, it is disliked. This makes four. So the disliked categories of pure water are four things. Okay, the non-disliked pure water is what changes by its standing, or by what is difficult to protect the water from, or by being near carrion, or if heated by the sun, or by a pure substance. How many is that? Five things. The original state is dislike or no dislike. The original state is no dislike. The third category is what remains pure in its purity but does not remove a man's ritual impurity, which is what meets the six conditions we mentioned. The discussion on pure water has ended.
