٧۔٢ باب إِذَا لَمْ يَجِدْ مَاءً وَلاَ تُرَابًا

bukhari:336Zakariyyāʾ b. Yaḥyá > ʿAbdullāh b. Numayr > Hishām b. ʿUrwah from his father > ʿĀʾishah

Aisha said, "I borrowed a necklace from Asma' and it was lost. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a man to search for it and he found it. Then the time of the prayer became due and there was no water. They prayed (without ablution) and informed Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it, so the verse of Tayammum was revealed." Usaid bin Hudair said to ʿAisha, "May Allah reward you. By Allah, whenever anything happened which you did not like, Allah brought good for you and for the Muslims in that."  

البخاري:٣٣٦حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّهَا اسْتَعَارَتْ مِنْ أَسْمَاءَ قِلاَدَةً فَهَلَكَتْ فَبَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجُلاً فَوَجَدَهَا فَأَدْرَكَتْهُمُ الصَّلاَةُ وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُمْ مَاءٌ فَصَلَّوْا فَشَكَوْا ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ آيَةَ التَّيَمُّمِ فَقَالَ أُسَيْدُ بْنُ حُضَيْرٍ لِعَائِشَةَ جَزَاكِ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا فَوَاللَّهِ مَا نَزَلَ بِكِ أَمْرٌ تَكْرَهِينَهُ إِلاَّ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكِ لَكِ وَلِلْمُسْلِمِينَ فِيهِ خَيْرًا
