Animals which are allowed to be eaten are pure,
so is their urine and faeces [end of text from Zaad al-Mutaqni’].
Al-Uthaymeen said such animals include camels,
cows, sheep, goats, rabbits etc.
The evidence for this includes:
-The Prophet commanded the ‘Urayniyoon to
benefit from camel urine and milk and didn’t command them to wash their utensils
after drinking. If their urine was impure, he would have commanded them to wash
it.
-The Prophet allowed us to pray in the goat
pens where urine and feces of the animal are dense.
-A principle of ‘al-Baraa al-Usliyyah’ (i.e. in
origin, there is no command). So whoever claims them to be impure would need to
present evidence otherwise they remain pure.
As for those who state that all forms of urine
and feces are impure because of the Hadith of the person who will be punished in
the grave because he didn’t protect himself from urine.
In response we say that urine refers to his own
urine, as some of the narrations of different wordings state.
