The answer

If the head and body are covered with water, then the (ritual bath) is valid, and the prayer is valid, no matter how small the quantity of water. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, performed ghusl with a saa' (a measure of volume), and there is no minimum limit for the water used in ghusl. Rather, the criterion is to cover the entire body with water, even if it is merely by flowing. Certainty in covering the entire body with water is not a condition; rather, a strong presumption is sufficient to alleviate hardship and difficulty.
