Chapter on Etiquettes of Causes Requiring Purification

مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يَاسِينَ اَلْبَصْرِيِّ عَنْ حَرِيزِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ اَلْمَاءِ اَلنَّقِيعِ تَبُولُ فِيهِ اَلدَّوَابُّ فَقَالَ« إِنْ تَغَيَّرَ اَلْمَاءُ فَلاَ تَتَوَضَّأْ مِنْهُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تُغَيِّرْهُ أَبْوَالُهَا فَتَوَضَّأْ مِنْهُ وَ كَذَلِكَ اَلدَّمُ إِذَا سَالَ فِي اَلْمَاءِ وَ أَشْبَاهُهُ».
Narrated to me by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, who said: Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Al-Hasan narrated to me, from his father, from Sa'd bin Abdullah, from Muhammad bin Isa, from Yasin Al-Basri, from Hariz bin Abdullah, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: Imam عليه السلام was asked about stagnant water in which animals urinate. Imam عليه السلام said: 'If the water changes, do not perform ablution with it. But if their urine does not change it, then perform ablution with it. The same applies to blood if it flows into the water or anything similar.'
