It rains in here

At the surau, I observed a Sudan woman make her ablution. She opened the tap as minimal as possible, letting water flowing gently. She cupped the water in her hands, then closed the tap. Washed her face thrice with the minimal cupped water. She opened again the tap, cupped the water, closed the tap, this time washing her right forearm thrice with the cupped water. Again she repeated the steps until she finished her ablution.

Her spot had no splash or puddles of water.
On the other sides, water gushed freely and there were splashes everywhere.

I cringe at the thought of the amount of water wasted. I have been guilty too.
