13. The secretion of an elephant’s trunk and the saliva of the lion, the dog, the leopard and other (quadrupeds) beasts are Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ. (Baĥār-e-Sharī’at, vol. 2, pp. 113)
Urine of suckling infants is impure
There is a common misconception that the urine of suckling infants is not impure because they do not eat any food. This is quite wrong. The urine and stool of even suckling infants is Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ. Similarly, if a suckling infant vomited the milk which is mouthful, it is also Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ.

The ruling on ‘Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ’ is that if it soils the body or a piece of cloth in the quantity that exceeds dirham, it is Farḍ to purify it. If offered without purifying it, the Ṣalāĥ will not be valid. To offer Ṣalāĥ knowingly in this state is a grave sin. Moreover, if Ṣalāĥ is offered in this state considering the Ṣalāĥ unimportant, then it is Kufr (unbelief).
If Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ has soiled the body or a piece of cloth equal to the quantity of dirham, then it is Wājib to purify it. If offered without purifying the body or the cloth, the Ṣalāĥ will be Makrūĥ Taḥrīmī and it will be Wājib in this case to repeat such Ṣalāĥ after purifying the cloth or the body. Offering Ṣalāĥ deliberately without purifying is a sin.
If Najāsat-e-Ghalīẓaĥ has soiled the body or a piece of cloth less than the quantity of dirham, it is Sunnaĥ to purify it. If offered without purifying it, the Ṣalāĥ will be valid but contrary to Sunnaĥ. It is better to repeat such a Ṣalāĥ.(Baĥār-e-Sharī’at, vol. 2, pp. 111)
