Issue No.601- When the deceased has willed that after the burial, his grave should be exhumed and his body be transferred to a sacred place or elsewhere, acting upon this will is not permissible as an obligatory precaution.
Issue No.604- The abovementioned rule applies to those who have been killed in the battlefield, i.e., they have died before the Muslims reach them. However, if the Muslims reach them while they are still alive or they are moved out of the battlefield and taken to a hospital or elsewhere and then they die, although they have the reward of the martyrs, the abovementioned ruling will not apply.
Issue No.605- In modern wars in which the battlefields are vast, sometimes extending up to several miles, and enemy bullets and suchlike are reaching an immense distance, all of those areas where soldiers gather are considered as the battlefield. However, if the enemy kills people by bombarding them away from the war fronts, the abovementioned rules will not apply to them.
Issue No.606- If for some reason a martyr’s body is found nude, it should be shrouded and buried without ghusl.
Issue No.613- If a person happens to be in a populated area, he should make his best efforts to acquire water for wuḍū or ghusl until he loses hope in being able to do so. And if he happens to be in an unpopulated area that is hard to cover, like if it is mountainous, or the land is uneven, or densely wooded, he should search for water in all the four directions to the extent of one arrow fling [1]. If the land is flat and no aforementioned obstacles are there, one should search for water within the distances covered by two flings of arrows. However, it is not necessary for a person to search for water in the direction about which he is sure water is not available. If among the four directions, some are even while others are uneven, the rule of each direction should be observed separately.
Issue No.614- If the time left for prayer is not short, and he is certain that water is available farther than the aforementioned distance, he should go there to acquire water, provided that it does not involve extreme difficulty. However if he doubts whether or not there is water there, it is likely that it isn’t necessary for him to go to that place.
Issue No.615- One can send a reliable person in search of water, and it is sufficient if one person goes on behalf of many.

Issue No.623- If some tools are needed for drawing water out of a well, the person concerned is obliged to purchase or rent them though their price may be many times higher than the usual rate. However, if obtaining these things or buying the water entails so much expense that it is harmful for his condition, it is not obligatory.
Issue No.624- If it is inevitable for a person who has to acquire water to borrow [money for] it, it is obligatory to do so. However, if he knows or it is so likely that he cannot afford to pay it back, it is not obligatory for him [to borrow it]. Also, if a person gives him some water for free and his acceptance does not entail hardship or any sense of obligation towards the individual, he should accept it.
Issue No.635- If a person has water but due to shortage of time, begins offering prayer with tayammum, and while he is offering prayer he loses the water he possessed, he can perform the subsequent prayers with the same tayammum.
Issue No.646- It is better for the thing on which tayammum is performed, to have some dust on it such that it remains on the hands. After striking the hands on it, it is recommended to shake them so that the dust falls off.
