The Shaykh : The point of this hadith is his statement: Sahih Muslim 235a meaning all three times from a single handful. This may involve great difficulty, taking one handful and rinsing the mouth and inhaling water three times. For this reason, it is reported in some descriptions that you rinse your mouth and inhale water from one handful, then you take another handful, then a third handful. This is easier, because the first method involves difficulty.
First: Water hardly remains in the hand; it leaks out from between the fingers.
Second: If you rinse your mouth three times from this single handful, you will get a small amount of water that may not cover the entire mouth, and the same applies to inhaling water. For this reason, some people said that this is very difficult and cannot be achieved. What is possible is three mouthfuls, each containing a rinse of the mouth and an inhalation of water.
