[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came to one of his wives, and they had exceeded the amount of water needed for washing. He desired to perform ablution with it, but his wife said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have already used it to cleanse myself from impurity." He responded, "Indeed, water does not become impure."  

البيهقي:٩٠١ – وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَازِمِ بْنِ أَبِي غَرْزَةَ نا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ هُوَ ابْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

انْتَهَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِهِ وَقَدْ فَضَلَ مِنْ غُسْلِهَا فَضْلٌ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ بِهِ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي اغْتَسَلْتُ مِنْهُ مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ لَا يَنْجُسُ
