The Ruling on Performing Wudu with Petroleum
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is it permissible to perform wudu with petroleum?
A: It is not permissible to do so; because it is not water in the Shari'ah, and the name water is not applied to it. And Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) says: [Al-Ma'idah: 6].
And petroleum is not water in general usage, and the name water does not include it.
And Allah is the One who grants success.
