Ablution from the water stations set up for the mosque

Ata said that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) built a basin for ablution in the mosque, knowing that everyone would perform ablution from it. The water from people's ablution also used to fall into this vessel. Ibn Jurayj said: "I asked Ata about this, and he said: 'There is no harm in it.'"

Muzahim said: "I said to al-Sha'bi: 'Which do you think is better for ablution: an old woman's jug that has a cloth over it, or the ablution basin into which even the butcher puts his hand?' He said: 'The basin into which even the butcher puts his hand.'"

Abdullah bin Dirar said: "I was performing ablution from the ablution basin built in the market when Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by and said: 'O so-and-so, where do you intend to go today?' I said: 'I intend to go to Sham.'"

Ibn Jurayj said: "I said to Ata: 'I saw a man performing ablution from that open basin.' He said: 'There is no harm in it. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) built such a basin, knowing that everyone would perform ablution from it.'"
