423. It was narrated that 'Amr heard Kuraib saying: "I heard Ibn 'Abbās say: 'I stayed overnight with my maternal aunt Maimunah, and the Prophet ﷺ got up and performed ablution from an old water skin, and he did a brief ablution.[1] Then I got up and did the same as he had done.” (Sahih)
423 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّافِعِيُّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، سَمِعَ كُرَيْبًا يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ: بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ، «فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْ شَنَّةٍ، وُضُوءًا يُقَلِّلُهُ، فَقُمْتُ فَصَنَعْتُ كَمَا صَنَعَ»

[1] Meaning: "That prompt you to waste water."
Children must be made to join voluntary acts of worship in order to habituate them. Using more water than needed in ablution is wrong. Having a brief ablution with a small quantity of water is enough.
