( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ الْفَقِيهُ، بِبَغْدَادَ، قَالَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، ثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، ثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ أَيُّوبَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ أَبِي أَنَسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، قَالَ:
احْتَلَمْتُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ بَارِدَةٍ فِي غَزْوَةِ ذَاتِ السَّلَاسِلِ، فَأَشْفَقْتُ إِنِ اغْتَسَلْتُ أَنْ أَهْلِكَ، فَتَيَمَّمْتُ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ بِأَصْحَابِي الصُّبْحَ، فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا عَمْرُو صَلَّيْتَ بِأَصْحَابِكَ وَأَنْتَ جُنُبٌ ؟ " فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِالَّذِي مَنَعَنِي مِنَ الِاغْتِسَالِ، وَقُلْتُ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَقُولُ: وَلا تَقْتُلُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِنَّ اللهَ كَانَ بِكُمْ رَحِيمًا فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا

I had a wet dream on a cold night during the expedition of Dhāt al-Salāsil. I feared that if I performed the ritual bath I would perish, so I performed tayammum and then led my companions in the dawn prayer. They mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "O ʿAmr, you led your companions in prayer while you were in a state of janābah?" So I told him what had prevented me from bathing, and I said: I heard Allah, Blessed and Exalted, say: {وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ بِكُمْ رَحِيمًا} The Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed and said nothing.
