Commentary:
(1)
Imam Ibn Majah rahimahullah said:
The first narration is authentic, and the second is an error.
This could mean that the first narration is authentic and in the second, the narrator made a mistake.
And it could also mean what was mentioned in the previous chapter: that husband and wife may perform ritual bath (ghusl) from the water left over by each other—that is correct.
And the issue in the second chapter, that is, its prohibition, is not the preferred view.
(2)
Some scholars have written regarding this prohibition that it is either from before the concession was granted, or it is based on precaution.
And the more correct view is what was mentioned in the previous chapter: that a woman and a man may perform ablution (wudu) from the water used and left over by each other.
