Chapter on Water and Its Rules, and What is Permissible and Impermissible for Purification

وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ سُؤْرِ اَلدَّوَابِّ وَ اَلْغَنَمِ وَ اَلْبَقَرِ أَ يُتَوَضَّأُ مِنْهُ وَ يُشْرَبُ فَقَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ».
The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, narrated to me from Abu al-Qasim Ja'far ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Sa'd ibn Abdullah, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Fadalah ibn Ayyub and Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Jamil ibn Darraj, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about the leftover water (su’r) of animals, sheep, and cows -can it be used for Wudu' (ablution) and drinking? Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm in it."
