Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform ghusl (ritual bath) with a bowl (of water), and I and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform ghusl from the same vessel. In Mahmood’s narration, there is an addition that the bowl was equal to one faraq (three sa’).
