Question 26) - Does the death of animals in water pollute the water?
A: Yes, the death of an animal with flowing blood - bird or beast - pollute the water i.e. makes it impure. The death of an animal which normally lives in the water does not make it impure, e.g. fish, frogs, crabs, just as it does not become impure through the death of that which does not have flowing blood e.g bedbugs, flies, hornets and scorpions.

Question 25) - What is the ruling of flowing water in which impurity fell?
A: Wudu and Ghusl are permissible with it as long as the traces of the impurity are not visible because the impurity does not remain with the flowing of the water.

Question 23) - Can water become impure by something falling in it?
A: Allaah has created water as pure and purifying [Mutahhir]. However, it becomes impure if any impurity falls in it, be it a little or a lot. The Nabi Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam ordered that water be protected from impurities. He said, "None of you should urinate in standing water which does not flow and then wash in it." [al-Bukhari from Abu Hurayrah Radiallahu anhu in Kitabul Wudu]
He also said, "When one of you arises from his sleep, he should not put his hands in the vessel till he has washed it thrice. For verily he does not know where his hand spent the night." [Muslim from Abu Hurayrah]
Thus if impurity falls in the water, neither Wudu nor Ghusl may be performed with it.

Question 24) - What do the Jurists say about Wudu made from a body of water in which impurity fell?
A: If the body is so large that its one side does not vibrate through the shaking of the other side, Wudu is permissible from the other side when impurity falls in one side. That is because it is apparent that the impurity does not reach the other side due to its distance from the side where the impurity fell.

We know that used water cannot remove a Hadath, but we want to know if it is pure or not? |

Question 22) - We know that used water cannot remove a Hadath, but we want to know if it is pure or not?
A: It is pure if Hadath alone was removed with it, i.e. it was not used to remove real Najasah. It is however ghayr mutahhir (Cannot make pure), meaning that it cannot be used a second time to remove a Hadath. Thus if some drops of used water falls on clothing, water of vessels, they do not become impure.
