3. Book of Purification
٣۔ كِتَابُ الطَّهَارَةِ
[Machine] A group of people came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "We are fishing in the sea, and we have fresh water with us. We are afraid of getting thirsty. Is it permissible for us to perform ablution with the salty water of the sea?" He ﷺ replied, "Yes, perform ablution with it." Al-Bukhari, Yazid ibn Muhammad al-Qurashi, has narrated this in the history, and it has also been narrated by Layth ibn Abi Burdah from him, and among them is Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib.
أَتَى نَفَرٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا نَصِيدُ فِي الْبَحْرِ وَمَعَنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ الْعَذْبِ فَرُبَّمَا تَخَوَّفْنَا الْعَطَشَ فَهَلْ يَصْلُحُ أَنْ نَتَوَضَّأَ مِنَ الْبَحْرِ الْمَالِحِ؟ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ تَوَضَّئُوا مِنْهُ» وَأَمَّا «الْبُخَارِيُّ يَزِيدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ هَذَا فِي التَّارِيخِ وَأَنَّهُ قَدْ رَوَى عَنْهُ اللَّيْثُ بْنُ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ فَمِنْهُمْ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was asked about performing ablution with seawater. He replied, "Its water is pure and its dead creatures are permissible."
سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ مَاءِ الْبَحْرِ أَنَتَوَضَّأُ مِنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ «الطَّهُورُ مَاؤُهُ وَالْحِلُّ مَيْتَتُهُ»
