حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ ، قَالَا : أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، " أَنَّهُ نَهَى أَنْ يُبَالَ فِي الْمَاءِ الرَّاكِدِ " .

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
35. Commentary: If one urinates in stagnant water, then that impurity will also remain with the water. This will cause foulness and bad odor to develop. If more people urinate, the color, smell, and taste of the water can also change, due to which the water will become impure and no longer usable. These concerns do not exist with running water; therefore, in cases of extreme necessity, urinating in running water is permissible.

Commentary:
(1)
By "standing water" is meant water in a pond or similar body that is not flowing.
If people continue to urinate in such water, it will become extremely filthy and unfit for use.
(2)
From this it is understood that if the water is flowing, such as the water of a stream, canal, or river, then urinating in it is not prohibited; however, it is better to avoid it.
Because this is contrary to cleanliness and purity.
