2. Similarly, the rainwater running through drains is pure unless the colour, odour or taste of the impurity is evident in it. As for making Wuḍū with it, if so many particles of the visible impurity are flowing in the water that at least one or more particles of impurity will certainly be present in the water if taken in the cupped hand, then it will become impure as soon as taken in the cupped hand, and performing Wuḍū with this water is Ḥarām, otherwise it is permissible but it is better to refrain from it. (ibid)
3. After the rainfall, if odour, taste or the particles of impurity are present in the stagnant water of the drain, then it is impure, otherwise pure. (ibid)
The stagnant rainwater in the low-lying streets and roads is pure even though its colour is muddy. Sometimes the sewage water also mixes with it. In this case, the same foregoing ruling will apply i.e. if there is a change in the colour, odour or taste of the water due to impurity, it will be considered impure, otherwise pure. However, after the rain has stopped, if the water is no longer flowing and covers the area of less than 225 square feet, and a little impurity or its particles are visible in it, it is impure in this case. Similarly, if someone urinates into it, it will become impure. The mud spattering on the back of pajamas from the ground due to walking is pure unless it is certainly known that it contains any impurity.
