Then the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, said: “Insects and creeping creatures that do not have flowing blood, such as wasps, flies, locusts, beetles, and ladybugs, if they come into contact with a person's hand, body, or clothes, do not render them impure. It is not obligatory to wash what comes into contact with them. Similarly, if such creatures fall into food or drink, they do not render it impure, and it is allowed to consume the food or drink and use water for purification. This explanation has already been provided earlier, and it is sufficient, if Allah سبحانه وتعالى wills. Then the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), said: “Wine, date wine, and any intoxicating beverage are impure. If any amount, whether small or large, comes into contact with a person’s garment, it is not allowed to pray in it until washed with water. This is supported by the verse: "Indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah سبحانه وتعالى], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it..." (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:90). The verse describes it as rijs (defilement), and rijs means impurity without any dispute. Once it is proven to be impure, it must be removed. Then He said: "Avoid it..." indicating a command for avoidance in all situations. The apparent meaning of Allah’s سبحانه وتعالى command implies obligation, and avoiding what falls under this term is required in every respect. This is also supported by narrations.
