'Abdullah
ibn Mughaffal narrated that he heard the Prophet say, "There will
be people from my nation who will transgress in making supplications and
in purifying themselves." (Related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud and an-Nasa'i.)
Sahih
Al-Bukhari Hadith 1.200 Narrated by Anas
The Prophet used to take a bath with one Sa' up to five Mudds (1 Sa'= 5
Mudds) of water and used to perform ablution with one Mudd of water.
Sahih
Al-Bukhari Hadith 1.252 Narrated by Abu Jafar
While I and my father were with Jabir bin 'Abdullah, some people asked
him about taking a bath He replied, "A Sa' of water is sufficient
for you." A man said, "A Sa' is not sufficient for me."
Jabir said, "A Sa was sufficient for one who had more hair than you
and was better than you (meaning the Prophet)." And then Jabir (put
on) his garment and led the prayer.
One Mudd is about both hands put together full of water. So next
time when you get under the shower or wash your car, remember the day of
judgement.
