Water; Its Purity and Impurity

وَقَالَ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «لَيْسَ يُكْرَهُ مِنْ قُرْبٍ وَ لاَ بُعْدِ بِئْرٌ يُغْتَسَلُ مِنْهَا وَ يُتَوَضَّأُ مَا لَمْ يَتَغَيَّرِ اَلْمَاءُ.
Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha عليه السلام said: "A well from which water is used for ghusl (ritual washing) and ablution is not disliked, whether it is near or far, as long as the water does not change (in smell, color, or taste)”.
