Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَلْدَةَ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْعَالِيَةِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ، أَصَابَتْهُ جَنَابَةٌ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ مَاءٌ وَعِنْدَهُ نَبِيذٌ أَيَغْتَسِلُ بِهِ قَالَ لاَ ‏.‏

English Translation

Narrated Abu Khaldah:

I asked Abu'l-'Aliyah whether a person who is sexually defiled and has no water with him, but he has only nabidh, can wash with it? He replied in the negative.
