385. It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās that on the Night of the Jinn the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to Ibn Mas'ud: "Do you have water?" He said: "No, only some Nabidh in a large water skin." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Good dates and pure water." (i.e., there is no harm from the mixing of the two) pour it for me." He said: "So I poured it for him and he performed ablution with it." (Da'if)

385 - حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ، عَنْ حَنَشٍ الصَّنْعَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، لَيْلَةَ الْجِنِّ: «مَعَكَ مَاءٌ؟» قَالَ: لَا. إِلَّا نَبِيذًا فِي سَطِيحَةٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تَمْرَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ وَمَاءٌ طَهُورٌ، صُبَّ عَلَيَّ» . قَالَ: فَصَبَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَتَوَضَّأَ بِهِ

Commentary

Some of the scholars take their cue from this 'Hadith' and declare it lawful to perform ablution from it. However, the Hadith being 'Weak' no ruling can be based on it.
