Sunan Ibn Majah 384 (Book 1, Hadith 118) #29736
Performing Ablution with Dates and Water

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that it is permissible to perform ablution with a mixture of dates and water.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud that : On the night of the jinn, the Messenger of Allah said to him: "Do you have water for ablution?" He said: "No, I have nothing, but some Nabidh in a vessel". He said: "Good dates and pure water (ie there is no harm from the mixing of the two)". So he performed ablution with it. This is the narration of Waki'.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي فَزَارَةَ الْعَبْسِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي زَيْدٍ، مَوْلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ حُرَيْثٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ قَالَ لَهُ لَيْلَةَ الْجِنِّ ‏"‏ عِنْدَكَ طَهُورٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ لاَ إِلاَّ شَىْءٌ مِنْ نَبِيذٍ فِي إِدَاوَةٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ تَمْرَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ وَمَاءٌ طَهُورٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَتَوَضَّأَ ‏.‏ هَذَا حَدِيثُ وَكِيعٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud tells us that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us that it is permissible to perform ablution with a mixture of dates and water. On the night of the jinn, when 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud did not have any water for ablution, the Prophet asked him if he had any nabidh in a vessel. When he said yes, the Prophet told him that good dates and pure water can be used for performing ablution. This teaches us that we should always look for alternative solutions when faced with difficulties or lack of resources. It also teaches us to be resourceful in our daily lives as well as during times of hardship or scarcity. Furthermore, this hadith also shows us how important it is to follow Islamic teachings even during difficult times or situations where resources are scarce.
