English Commentary:
1:
From this prohibition, a prohibition of tanzih (discouragement, not absolute forbiddance) is intended,
that is, it is better not to use it.
The evidence for this is those hadiths which indicate permissibility,
or this prohibition will be applied to that water which falls from the limbs during ablution (wudu), because that is used water (ma’ musta‘mal).
2:
The meaning is that the narration of Mahmood ibn Ghailan is with an expression of doubt, while that of Muhammad ibn Bashshar is without an expression of doubt.

Benefits and Issues:
This prohibition is either from before the concession was granted, or it is based on precaution. However, in Kitab al-‘Ilal of Tirmidhi, it is mentioned that Imam Bukhari rahimahullah declared the hadith of Hakam ibn ‘Amr al-Aqra‘ to be weak. And the more correct view is that which was mentioned in the previous chapter: that a woman and a man may perform ablution (wudu) and ritual bath (ghusl) using water left over and used by each other.
