I begin by seeking aid in Allaah, the most Merciful, the One Who bestows Mercy
All praises and thanks be to Allaah, and may the Salaah and Salaam of Allaah be upon His Messenger. To proceed:

Categories of Water
[21.05.2008]
According to the madh-hab of Imaam Ahmed, rahimahullaah, there are three categories of water:
1. Tahoor – Pure and may be used for purification.
2. Taahir – Pure (its self) but cannot be used for purification.
3. Najas – Impure and cannot be used for purification.
When does water become pure but not purifying (i.e. Taahir)?
