It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the wife of the Messenger, Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), said: "Both I and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah), so I performed ghusl (ritual bath) from a tub and some water remained. When the Messenger of Allah came to perform ghusl, I said: I have performed (janabah) ghusl with this water." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, janabah does not make the water impure." Or he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Nothing makes water impure." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ghusl from it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that one of the wives of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ghusl (ritual bath) of janabah, and then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed wudu (ablution) with the leftover water from her bath. When she informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of the whole matter, he said: "Indeed, nothing makes water impure."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution with the water left over from her ritual bath after major impurity.
