[Machine] I used to be a disbeliever, but Allah guided me to Islam. I was far from water, and my family was with me. I became junub (in a state of major ritual impurity), so it troubled me. Abu Dharr was described to me, so I searched for him and entered a mosque in Mina. I recognized him by the description: an elderly man with a flowing beard. I went and stood next to him while he was praying and greeted him, but he did not respond. Then he performed a prayer that was complete, perfect, and prolonged. When he finished, he responded to me. I said, "Are you Abu Dharr?" He replied, "My family claims so." He said, "I used to be a disbeliever, and Allah guided me to Islam. I used to neglect my religion, I was far from water and my family was with me. When junub occurred to me, it troubled me. He said, "Do you know Abu Dharr?" I said, "Yes." He said, "I embraced Islam while I was gathering firewood in Madinah. Ayyub or similar name commanded the Prophet ﷺ to give me a pair of camels and a flock of sheep. I would be far from water, and my family would be with me. When junub occurred to me, it troubled me to the extent that I thought I would be destroyed. So, I sat on one of the camels and went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the midday while he was sitting in the shade of the mosque with a group of his companions. I got off the camel and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am ruined!' He said, 'What has ruined you?' So, I told him my story, and he laughed. Then he called a man from his family, and a black slave girl came with a vessel of water in which there was some dirt. He ordered a man from the people to screen me, so I screened myself and performed Ghusl. Then I went to him, and he said, 'The good land is a purifier, as long as you do not find water. When you do find water, then be certain of its purity.'"
