Hadith 12
۞
Hadith.10 - The people of the desert came to the Messenger of Allah (sw) and said:
"O’ Messenger of Allah (sw), our water reservoirs are frequented by wild animals, dogs, and livestock."
He (sw) said to them: "What they take with their mouths is for them, and the rest is for you”.
[AL SADUQ]
If a beast, donkey, mule, sheep, cow, or camel drinks from water, there is no harm in using it and performing ablution with it. However, if a lizard falls into a vessel of water, the water should be poured out. If a dog licks the vessel or drinks from it, the water should be poured out, and the vessel washed three times
once with earth and twice with water, then dried.
As for stagnant water with an unpleasant odor, it is best to avoid it, unless no other water is available.
There is no harm in performing ablution with water from which a cat has drunk, and there is no harm in drinking it.
10 - وأَتَى أَهْلُ اَلْبَادِيَةِ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ إِنَّ حِيَاضَنَا هَذِهِ تَرِدُهَا اَلسِّبَاعُ وَ اَلْكِلاَبُ وَ اَلْبَهَائِمُ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ «لَهَا مَا أَخَذَتْ أَفْوَاهُهَا وَ لَكُمْ سَائِرُ ذَلِكَ.
وإن شرب من الماء دابة أو حمار أو بغل أو شاة أو بقرة أو بعير فلا بأس باستعماله والوضوء منه. فإن وقع وزغ في إناء فيه ماء أهريق ذلك الماء. وإن ولغ فيه كلب أو شرب منه أهريق الماء وغسل الإناء ثلاث مرات: مرة بالتراب ومرتين بالماء ثم يجفف.
وأما الماء الآجن فيجب التنزه عنه إلا أن يكون لا يوجد غيره. ولا بأس بالوضوء بماء يشرب منه السنور، ولا بأس بشربه.
