How can you waste water on the banks of a river?

This evening as we were breaking fast we were also watching a certain person on a certain tv station.

For some reason he started talking about a hadith. He said that the Prophet Muhammad, Salallahu alaihiwasallam, said “Don’t waste water! Not even if you’re on the banks of a river!”

Then he proceeded to explain it to his brothers and sisters, that, you see brothers and sisters (and i paraphrase), see the extent of this hadith because, “how can you waste water on the banks of a river?” and he laughed his little laugh.

*blinks*

People will say I am a bad muslim, saying things about my muslim brothers but…but…LOGIC!

*sobs*

I hope if you know that you can waste electricity even if you live in a nuclear power plant!
