Water; Its Purity and Impurity

27. hadíth

وَ سَأَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخَاهُ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ اَلْجُنُبِ هَلْ يُجْزِيهِ عَنْ غُسْلِ اَلْجَنَابَةِ أَنْ يَقُومَ فِي اَلْمَطَرِ حَتَّى يُغْسَلَ رَأْسُهُ وَ جَسَدُهُ وَ هُوَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى مَاءٍ سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «إِذَا غَسَلَهُ اِغْتِسَالَهُ بِالْمَاءِ أَجْزَأَهُ ذَلِكَ.

Ali ibn Ja'far asked his brother Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (a.s) about a man in a state of major ritual impurity (junub) : Would it suffice for him to stand in the rain until his head and body are washed, if he also has access to other water? Imam (a.s) said: "If the rain washes him completely as it would with water for ghusl, then that suffices."
