95. Anas reported that the Prophet ﷺ would perform Wudū' using a vessel large enough to hold two Raṭls,[1] and he would perform Ghusl a Ṣā'. (Saḥih)
Abū Dāwūd said: Shu'bah reported it, he said: "‘Abdullāh bin ‘Abdullāh bin Jabar narrated to me, he said: ‘I heard Anas’" except that he said in it: "he (ﷺ) performed Wudū' with a Makūk"[2] and he did not mention two Raṭls.
Abū Dāwūd said: And Yahyā bin Ādam reported it from Sharik, he said: "From Ibn Jabr bin ‘Atik." He said: And Sufyān reported it from ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Eisā, he said: "Jabr bin ‘Abdullāh narrated to me...."
Abū Dāwūd said: I heard Aḥmad bin Ḥanbal say that a Ṣā' is equivalent to five Raṭls.
Abū Dāwūd said: And this is the Ṣā' of Ibn Abī Dhi'b,[3] and it is the Ṣā' of the Prophet ﷺ.

Commentary
The foregoing Aḥādīth should not be taken as laying down rules for fixed quantities of water. The purpose is to encourage and exhort, in that this is enough water, while more is used when needed. Water should be consumed as sparingly as possible. Undue use or waste is not permissible.
