سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ غُسْلِ الْجَنَابَةِ كَمْ يُجْزِئُ مِنَ الْمَاءِ فَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) يَغْتَسِلُ بِخَمْسَةِ أَمْدَادٍ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ صَاحِبَتِهِ وَ يَغْتَسِلَانِ جَمِيعاً مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husay, from Safwan, from Al A’ala Bin Razeyn, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, (It has been narrated) from one of the two (5<sup>th</sup> or 6<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>), said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the major Ablution <span class="iTxt">(Wudhu)</span> (for sexual impurity), how much of the water would suffice?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> used to wash with five handfuls between him<sup>saww</sup> and his<sup>saww</sup> companion (wife), and they would both be washing from one vessel’.
