حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَنْطَاكِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ خُرَيْقٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ
خَرَجْنَا فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَ رَجُلاً مِنَّا حَجَرٌ فَشَجَّهُ فِي رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ احْتَلَمَ فَسَأَلَ أَصْحَابَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَجِدُونَ لِي رُخْصَةً فِي التَّيَمُّمِ فَقَالُوا مَا نَجِدُ لَكَ رُخْصَةً وَأَنْتَ تَقْدِرُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أُخْبِرَ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلاَّ سَأَلُوا إِذْ لَمْ يَعْلَمُوا فَإِنَّمَا شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيهِ أَنْ يَتَيَمَّمَ وَيَعْصِرَ أَوْ يَعْصِبَ شَكَّ مُوسَى عَلَى جُرْحِهِ خِرْقَةً ثُمَّ يَمْسَحَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَغْسِلَ سَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ

We set out on a journey. One of our people was hurt by a stone, that injured his head. He then had a sexual dream. He asked his fellow travelers: Do you find a concession for me to perform tayammum? They said: We do not find any concession for you while you can use water. He took a bath and died. When we came to the Prophet ﷺ, the incident was reported to him. He said: They killed him, may Allah kill them! Could they not ask when they did not know? The cure for ignorance is inquiry. It was enough for him to perform tayammum and to pour some drops of water or bind a bandage over the wound (the narrator Musa was doubtful); then he should have wiped over it and washed the rest of his body.

لم يروه عن عطاء عن جابر غير الزبير بن خريق وليس بالقوي وخالفه الأوزاعي فرواه عن عطاء عن ابن عباس وهو الصواب واختلف عن الأوزاعي فقيل عن عطاء وقيل بلغني عن عطاء وأرسله الأوزاعي بآخره فقال عن عطاء عن النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم وهو الصواب
machine translationNo one narrated it from ʿAṭāʾ from Jābir except al-Zubayr b. Khurayq, and he is not strong (laysa bi-l-qawī). Al-Awzāʿī contradicted him and narrated it from ʿAṭāʾ from Ibn ʿAbbās, and that is the correct version (al-ṣawāb). There is disagreement about al-Awzāʿī: it was said, "from ʿAṭāʾ," and it was said, "it reached me from ʿAṭāʾ." Al-Awzāʿī transmitted its ending as a mursal report, saying, "from ʿAṭāʾ from the Prophet ﷺ," and that is the correct version.
