ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ ثَانٍ يُصَرِّحُ بِأَنَّ مَسْحَ الذِّرَاعَيْنِ فِي التَّيَمُّمِ غَيْرُ وَاجِبٍ
[Machine] "I was sitting with Abdullah and Abu Musa. Abu Musa said, 'O Abu Abdur-Rahman, if a person cannot find water, should he still pray?' I said, 'No.' Abu Musa said, 'Do you not remember the statement of Ammar to Umar? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent both of us, and I became junub and had to perform tayammum with soil. Then I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him about it, and he said, 'It would have been sufficient for you to do this,' and he struck his hand on the ground and rubbed his face and hands with it.'"
I have not seen Umar compromising on this. He said, 'What will you do with this verse: "So if you do not find water, then purify yourselves with clean earth"?' He said, 'If we granted permission to them in this matter, then whenever one of them found cold water, he would perform tayammum with the earth.' Ya'la narrated this from Al-A'mash who said, 'I said to my brother (Ammar), "This was only because of this."'
كُنْتُ جَالِسًا مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبِي مُوسَى فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّجُلُ يُجْنِبُ فَلَا يَجِدُ الْمَاءَ أَيُصَلِّي؟ فَقَالَ لَا فَقَالَ أَمَا تَذْكُرُ قَوْلَ عَمَّارٍ لِعُمَرَ بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ فَأَجْنَبْتُ فَتَمَعَّكْتُ فِي التُّرَابِ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ هَكَذَا وَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَمَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ» فَقَالَ لَمْ أَرَ عُمَرَ قَنَعَ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ فَمَا تَصْنَعُ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَاءً فَتَيَمَّمُوا صَعِيدًا طَيِّبًا} فَقَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّا لَوْ رَخَّصْنَا لَهُمْ فِي هَذَا لَكَانَ أَحَدُهُمْ إِذَا وَجَدَ بَرْدَ الْمَاءِ تَيَمَّمَ بِالصَّعِيدِ» زَادَ يَعْلَى قَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ فَقُلْتُ لِشَقِيقٍ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ هَذَا إِلَّا لِهَذَا
