Takeaways

• 😀 The script discusses the use of water for purification (wudu) in Islamic law, specifically within the Shafi'i school of thought.
• 😀 Water is classified as 'mutlak' (pure), which can be used for purification and to remove najis (impurities), including water from the sky (rain, snow, dew) and from the earth (rivers, wells, oceans).
• 😀 Water from the sky is categorized into three types: rainwater, melted snow, and dew, all of which can be used for purification.
• 😀 The foundation for using water from the sky and earth for purification comes from the Quranic verse that Allah has provided rainwater to purify His followers.
• 😀 Water from the earth, such as sea water, river water, and well water, is also considered suitable for wudu and purification, as confirmed by the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
• 😀 The hadith mentions that sea water is pure and its dead animals (such as fish) are permissible to consume, whereas certain animals, like cats, are not halal, even if found in the sea.
• 😀 The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) used water from the well of Buda'ah, which was frequently used by many people, including non-Muslims, and it did not invalidate his wudu.
• 😀 There is a discussion about the use of sun-heated water. Water heated intentionally by the sun is considered 'makruh' (discouraged) but still permissible for wudu.
• 😀 The prohibition of using sun-heated water is due to concerns about potential health risks, such as the development of skin issues or ailments from prolonged exposure to overly hot water.
• 😀 Despite the 'makruh' status of sun-heated water, using it does not invalidate wudu. The main issue is not related to the validity of purification but to the potential harm caused by the temperature of the water.

Q & A

What is the main topic discussed in the script?

The main topic discussed is the concept of 'fiqh' (Islamic jurisprudence), focusing on the rules related to purification (thoharoh), particularly the types of water that can be used for purification purposes in Islamic practices.

What is the significance of 'air mutlak' in the context of purification?

'Air mutlak' refers to pure, unaltered water that is allowed to be used for purification, such as removing najis (impurity) and for performing wudhu (ablution). It includes water that comes from the sky (rain, snow, dew) and from the earth (such as water from rivers, oceans, and wells).

What is the difference between water that is 'mutlak' and other types of water in terms of purification?

Water that is 'mutlak' is considered pure and can be used for purification purposes. On the other hand, water that is altered or impure, such as water mixed with other substances like vinegar or rose water, cannot be used for purification in Islam.

What types of water are classified as 'air mutlak'?

Air mutlak includes three main categories: water that falls from the sky (rainwater, snow, and dew) and water that comes from the earth, such as seawater, river water, and well water.

Is seawater permissible for purification according to the script?

Yes, seawater is permissible for purification. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stated that seawater is pure, and even the dead fish found in it are halal (permissible to eat), as long as they are marine creatures.

Can water that has been intentionally heated by the sun be used for purification?

Water that is heated by the sun is allowed for purification but is considered 'makruh' (disliked). It can still be used for wudhu or removing najis, but it is better to avoid using water intentionally heated by the sun as it could lead to skin conditions like discoloration.

What does the term 'makruh' mean in the context of water used for purification?

'Makruh' refers to something that is not prohibited but discouraged or disliked. In the context of water used for purification, water that is intentionally heated by the sun is considered makruh, meaning it is better to avoid it, though it does not invalidate purification.

What is the basis for the permissibility of using seawater and river water for purification?

The permissibility of using seawater and river water for purification is based on hadiths where the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) confirmed that both seawater and river water are pure and suitable for use in purification rituals like wudhu.

How is water from a well regarded in terms of purification?

Water from a well is considered pure and permissible for use in purification rituals, as it falls under the category of water that comes from the earth (air mutlak). The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also used water from wells for wudhu.

What is the significance of the hadith regarding water heated by the sun?

The hadith concerning water heated by the sun emphasizes that although such water can still be used for wudhu, it is discouraged (makruh) due to the potential health risks, such as skin damage, which could occur from excessive exposure to sunlight.
