Sayyiduna Hakam bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade that a man perform ablution with water left over from a woman’s ablution (the narrator is in doubt, perhaps these are the words:) after a woman has drunk from it (to perform ablution). The narrator named Shu’bah states: Sulayman al-Taymi narrated this: Abu Hajib narrated from a companion of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade performing ablution with water left over from a woman’s ablution. The narrator named Abu Hajib is Sawadah bin Asim; regarding him, there is a difference in this narration—some narrators have transmitted it as a statement of Hakam (mawquf), not as a narration reaching the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (marfu’).
