The Ruling on Performing Wudu with Water Containing Rust
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, who indicated her name with the initials (A. F.), says: Your Eminence, when we want to perform wudu from one of the mosques and we turn on the water, water mixed with rust comes out due to the pipes or water pipes. Do we perform wudu with this rusty water? Or do we run the water out in large quantities until clear water comes out?
Answer:
There is no harm in performing wudu or ghusl with water that has been altered by rust; it does not cause harm. One may take a bath with it and perform wudu from it, and the rust does not harm it, and praise be to Allah. Likewise, if it is altered by dirt or tree leaves, or something similar, that does not harm it. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
