The ruling on water dripping into the vessel during ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If I am performing wudu' (ablution) from a vessel filled with water, and some water drips into it while I am performing wudu', does it become used water that is not permissible for use?

Answer:
A little dripping, like a drop or two or something similar, does not harm. This does not harm because it is difficult to guard against it. However, if you perform wudu' on every limb and the water from it goes into the vessel, pouring into the vessel, that is what is forbidden. Yes.
