English translation

138. Ibn Al-Munkadir said: “I heard Jâbir say: ‘I fell sick, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and Abû Bakr came to visit me. They found me unconscious, so the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ performed Wudû’ and poured his Wudû’ water over me.” (Sahîh)

Arabic text

138 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الْمُنْكَدِرِ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ: «مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعُودَانِي، فَوَجَدَانِي قَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ، فَتَوَضَّأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ وَضُوءَهُ»

Commentary

The water described in this narration seems to refer to the water with which the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ performed ablution. That is to say that the used water of ablution is pure. Nonetheless, it is possible that the water referred to in this narration was the unused water of the container from which the Prophet ﷺ was performing ablution.
