Which waters are fit for Netilat Yadayim?
- Waters that changed it’s color are unfit for Netilat Yadayim. The same law applies whether the color because something fell in, or because of the container. [1]
- If dye changed the color of water even if it didn’t dissolve the water is unfit. [2]
- If dirt fell into water it’s not considered water that changed colors. [3]
- If water that changed it’s color changed back to it’s normal state it’s considered fit. [4]
- If one does Tevilat Yadayim in a mikvah, the waters are fit even if the waters changed colors unless dye, red wine, or fruit juice fell in and dissolved. [5]

Mishna Brurah 160:2 writes that the Achronim point out that the S”A merely copied the language of the Tur, however, we hold like the Rambam and so it’s permitted.
