عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي قُشَيْرٍ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ أَعْزُبُ عَنِ الْمَاءِ فَتُصِيبُنِي الْجَنَابَةُ فَأَتَيَمَّمُ، فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ فِي مَنْزِلِهُ فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ، فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ وَقَدْ وُصِفَتْ لِي هَيْئَتُهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فَعَرَفْتُهُ بِالنَّعْتِ، فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ حَتَّى انْصَرَفَ، فَقُلْتُ: أَنْتَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّ أَهْلِي لَيَقُولُونَ ذَلِكَ، قُلْتُ: مَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ رُؤْيَةً مِنْكَ، قَالَ: فَقَدْ رَأَيْتَنِي، قُلْتُ: إِنَّا كُنَّا نَعْزُبُ عَنِ الْمَاءِ فَتُصِيبُنَا الْجَنَابَةُ فَنَلْبَثُ أَيَّامًا نَتَيَمَّمُ، فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَمْرٌ أَشْكَلَ عَلَيَّ، قَالَ: أَتَعْرِفُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ ؟ كُنْتُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَاجْتَوَيْتُهَا فَأَمَرَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِغُنَيْمَةٍ فَخَرَجْتُ فِيهَا، فَأَصَابَتْنِي جَنَابَةٌ فَتَيَمَّمْتُ الصَّعِيدَ فَصَلَّيْتُ أَيَّامًا، فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنِّي هَالِكٌ، فَأَمَرْتُ بِقَعُودٍ فَشُدَّ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ رَكِبْتُهُ حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَوَجَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ظِلِّ الْمَسْجِدِ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ، فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ وَقَالَ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، أَبُو ذَرٍّ ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَصَابَتْنِي جَنَابَةٌ فَتَيَمَّمْتُ أَيَّامًا، ثُمَّ وَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنِّي هَالِكٌ، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَاءٍ، فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ أَمَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ فِي عُسٍّ يَتَخَضْخَضُ - يَقُولُ: لَيْسَ بِمَلْآنَ - فَقَالَ: إِنَّ الصَّعِيدَ الطَّيِّبَ كَافِيًا مَا لَمْ تَجِدِ الْمَاءَ وَلَوْ إِلَى عَشْرِ سِنِينَ، فَإِذَا وَجَدْتَ الْمَاءَ فَأَمِسَّهُ بَشَرَتَكَ قَالَ: وَكَانَتْ جَنَابَةُ أَبِي ذَرٍّ مِنْ جِمَاعٍ
Translation
✧ I was far from water, became junub, and performed tayammum. Something arose in my heart, so I went to the house of Abū Dharr but did not find him. I went to the mosque, where his appearance had been described to me, and there he was standing praying; I recognized him by the description. I greeted him, but he did not respond until he finished. I said, “Are you Abū Dharr?” He said, “My family says that.” I said, “No one was more beloved to me to see than you.” He said, “Now you have seen me.” I said, “We stay far from water, become junub, and remain for days performing tayammum. Something in my heart troubled me about that.” He said, “Do you know Abū Dharr? I was in Madinah and disliked staying there, so the Messenger of God ﷺ ordered a small flock of sheep for me, and I went out with them. I became junub, performed tayammum with clean earth, and prayed for several days. Something in my heart troubled me until I thought I was doomed. So I ordered a young camel to be saddled and mounted it until I reached Madinah. I found the Messenger of God ﷺ in the shade of the mosque among a group of his companions. I greeted him, and he raised his head and said, ‘Glory be to God! Abū Dharr?’ I said, ‘Yes, O Messenger of God. I became junub and performed tayammum for several days; then something in my heart troubled me until I thought I was doomed.’ The Messenger of God ﷺ called for water, and a black slave woman brought it in a bowl that was shaking—meaning not full. He said, ‘Clean earth is sufficient as long as you do not find water, even for ten years. But when you find water, let it touch your skin.’ ” He said, “Abū Dharr’s janāba was from sexual intercourse.”
