It is narrated from an elderly man (shaykh) who used to be a judge in the Mosque of al-Ashyakh before the affair of Ibn al-Ash'ath, that he said: It reached me that the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), during a journey, reached a pool at one edge of which lay a carcass, so they held back from using it until the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to them. They said: "O Messenger of Allah, at one corner of this pool there lies a carcass?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Drink yourselves and give others (that is, your animals) to drink, for water remains lawful and does not become unlawful (merely because of this)."
Its chain is weak.
