In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātu

If one can perform ghusl with the water of the wudhu, then ghusl has to be performed. One requires approximately 5 litres to make ghusl.[1]

If the water of the wudhu is not sufficient to make ghusl, then one should perform tayammum and perform Salah.[2]

And Allāh Ta῾āla Knows Best
