Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

Rashi says that mei raglayim in considered tamei even if there are two reasons for safek 1) maybe it’s from an animal 2) Maybe from a person who is tahor.  Generaly we know that a double safek (sfek sfeka) is permitted – why is this case different?

Today’s Daf Yomi Question:

We learn in that water collected in a vessel is considered Mayim Sheuvin (which is invalid for a Mikva) provided that he had the intention of collecting this water in the keli.  Why is intent necessary here, if the water is in a keli, why is it not automatically considered Mayim Sheuvin?
