If hydrogen (H) is combustible and oxygen (O) is combustible, why does water (H₂O) water not explode?

its water, not hydrogen and oxygen gas. it simply cant combust. it isnt unstable because both the hydrogen and oxygen are satisfied(somewhat, i personally think O gets the better part of the deal. thats why H2O is polar)
