alhamdulillah
we'll talk
today in this class about impure
water we spoke about pure water now
we'll talk about impure
water why would we need to speak about
impure water because this impure water
cannot be used to
uplift minor or major ritual impurity
cannot be used to wash off
impurities because anything it comes in
contact with becomes NES by itself so
this is spreading and
contagious thirdly we cannot use this to
drink ourselves or use in cooking
because this is NIS impure we have to
stay far away
from so what is impure water impure
water is any water
that came in contact with an
impurity that
changed its smell its color
or
its
taste with what with an impurity so if I
put some zaffron in water and I drink it
The Taste is different but this is water
still and it is pure still because the
substance that change one of these three
characteristics is pure but if urine
were to fall into this glass or
bucket if feces were to fall if a dead
animal such as a
rat or a cat dies and drown in such a
container if mens's blood were to fall
in
Etc that would render this water to be
NES so how can you how can we purify
such nudous water Scholars say that
there are means of purifying it number
one to add more pure water to this
impure water until the whole contain
Diner becomes pure and the
characteristics of
impurity
vanishes
and this is known from the Hadith where
a nomad came and urinated in the Masjid
now we've have we have a problem we have
a spot that has an
impurity in the ground and you you know
that it's not carpets that was covering
the floor of the Masjid at the time of
the Prophet alham rather it was sand and
pibbles so the prophet ordered them to
overwhelm that with a bucket of
water once it was overwhelmed by pure
water it became pure and they could pray
on that spot another way
of purification would be to leave that
water until the impurity disappears by
time this happens when you leave the
container for a long period of time and
you come and find that there are no
signs of impurity in it
anymore the
Third Way or means of purification is
through
desination
so when they do it with these new
technologies and membranes and the
likes that removes any impurity and
restores the three characteristics of
the water to its original form then we
uh uh judge this water to be pure and
usable nowadays this is done
extensively with
sewer
water in order to
utilize the scarce sources of water
instead of dumping it in the oceans or
disposing of it they sort of recycle it
they
chemically treat it so that they would
remove any impurities and harmful
substances and restore the water to its
original
nature where the taste color and smell
is restored and it is uh um good in this
case
alhamdulillah it becomes usable
again
now how to
judge what do you
mean I have a water container how to
judge whether it's pure or
impure well we've stated this before and
we'll state it once
again
if an impurity falls into a water
container and
changes one of its three
characteristics then this water is
impure so I have a big
tank of water
and a dog or a cat falls in and dies and
drowns and the rotten dead
body changes the color of the
water even if I remove the
cat the color has already been changed
the taste is stinky and the smell is
awful
what changed these three
characteristics the answer is the de cat
which is NES in this case the whole
container is NES it can't be
used
period Situation Number Two what happens
if I have a swimming pool and it's huge
and a cat falls in and dies I take the
dead
cat
out and I look at the water and examine
the water I don't find any traces of
smell change of color or taste in the
swimming pool because it's
huge it's big the amount of water is a
lot in this case this is pure
100% now the problem is what happens if
the impurity falls into a small contain
container
and it's an issue of dispute and the
most authentic opinion is that we go
back to the basics the three
characteristics
if they were not changed by an
impurity then the water Remains by
default to be pure because the prophet
saidat in an authentic
water is pure and nothing makes it
impure unless of
course one of the three
characteristics has changed or was
changed and the change in the three
characteristics is backed up by the
consensus of Scholars they all agree
from all different schools of thought if
one of the three character istics has
been changed by an impurity they all
agree this water is
impure so this leads us when we follow
the Quran and Sunnah to consider a jug
of
water where a drop of urine
fell and we are in need of this
water in some areas Unfortunately they
are in need of a glass of
water either due to Wars or due to
famine and drought
so we don't have the luxury of throwing
it away and disposing of it and get some
thing else in its
place so what to do here we have to
implement the rulings of F that we are
learning we look at it three
characteristics have not been changed by
an impurity we render it as pure and
Allah knows
best this is all the time we have and I
pray to Allah subhana wa ta'ala that he
increases our knowledge in Islam so that
we can know what is and what
Isam
