Leftover water of dogs and monkeys
Question
In regards to leftover water of an animal-specifically cats, rats-there is a hadith giving leniency to using its water due to it entering the house often, to this effect:إنما هي من الطوافين و الطوافات, in today's times, can dogs and monkeys be regarded as الطوافين و الطوافات?
Answer
This law does not apply to monkeys and dogs.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
