Water Extracted from Fruit

Question
Is it permissible to perform ablution with water extracted from fruit?
Answer

I say, with Allah's guidance: It is not permissible to perform ablution with water extracted from fruit through treatment and handling, or that comes out by itself without pressing: such as the water of cucumber, melon, watermelon, pumpkin, lemon, and pomegranate. However, it is permissible to remove actual impurities from clothes and the body with it. See: Al-Durr Al-Mukhtar 1: 121, and Al-Maraki p. 65, and Allah knows best.
