Sunan Abi Dawud 81 (Book 1, Hadith 81) #20372
Washing with Leftover Water Prohibited

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forbade a male and female from washing with the water left over by the other.

Narrated Humayd al-Himyari: Humayd al-Himyari reported: I met a person (among the Companion of Prophet) who remained in the company of the Prophet for four years as AbuHurayrah remained in his company. He reported: The Messenger of Allah forbade that the female should wash with the water left over by the male, and that the male should wash with the left-over of the female. The version of Musaddad adds: "That they both take the handful of water together".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ، قَالَ لَقِيتُ رَجُلاً صَحِبَ النَّبِيَّ أَرْبَعَ سِنِينَ كَمَا صَحِبَهُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَنْ تَغْتَسِلَ الْمَرْأَةُ بِفَضْلِ الرَّجُلِ أَوْ يَغْتَسِلَ الرَّجُلُ بِفَضْلِ الْمَرْأَةِ - زَادَ مُسَدَّدٌ - وَلْيَغْتَرِفَا جَمِيعًا

QUICK LESSONS:
Follow Islamic etiquette and modesty when interacting with members of the opposite gender.
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prohibition of a male and female washing with leftover water from each other. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that it was not permissible for a man and woman to use each other's remaining water when bathing or washing. This is because it could lead to physical contact between them, which is forbidden in Islam. He also taught that they should not take handfuls of water together, as this could also lead to physical contact between them. These teachings are important for Muslims to follow in order to maintain proper Islamic etiquette and modesty when interacting with members of the opposite gender.
