أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، نا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَنَتَوَضَّأُ مِنْ بِئْرِ بُضَاعَةَ؟ وَهِيَ بِئْرٌ يُلْقَى فِيهَا النَّتْنُ، وَالْجِيفَةُ، وَالْمَحِيضُ، وَالْكِلَابُ. فَقَالَ: " الْمَاءُ طَهُورٌ لَا يُنَجِّسُهُ شَيْءٌ ". أَخْرَجَهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ فِي السُّنَنِ. قَالَ: وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: ابْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ الشَّيْخُ أَحْمَدُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى: وَالْحَدِيثُ عَلَى طَهُورِهِ إِذَا لَمْ تُلْقَ فِي الْبِئْرِ نَجَاسَةٌ، فَإِذَا أُلْقِيَتْ فِيهَا نَجَاسَةٌ فَمَعْنَى الْحَدِيثِ فِيمَا بَلَغَ قُلَّتَيْنِ، وَلَمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ وَدَلِيلُهُ يَرِدُ فِي مَوْضِعِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى.
(a) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked: O Messenger of Allah! May we perform ablution with the water of the well of Buda'ah, when filth, rotting flesh, menstrual cloths and dead dogs are thrown into it? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Water is pure; nothing makes it impure." [Sahih]
(b) Shaykh Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The hadith is evidence for purifying oneself from a well into which no impurity has been thrown. If impurity is thrown into it, then the meaning of the hadith is: when the water amounts to two qullahs (large jars) and it (its taste, colour and smell) has not changed. This will be discussed in its proper place, if Allah wills.
