حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شَقِيقَ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبِي مُوسَى فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو مُوسَى أَرَأَيْتَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِذَا أَجْنَبَ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مَاءً كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لاَ يُصَلِّي حَتَّى يَجِدَ الْمَاءَ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَكَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ بِقَوْلِ عَمَّارٍ حِينَ قَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ قَالَ أَلَمْ تَرَ عُمَرَ لَمْ يَقْنَعْ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَدَعْنَا مِنْ قَوْلِ عَمَّارٍ كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ بِهَذِهِ الآيَةِ فَمَا دَرَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ مَا يَقُولُ فَقَالَ إِنَّا لَوْ رَخَّصْنَا لَهُمْ فِي هَذَا لأَوْشَكَ إِذَا بَرَدَ عَلَى أَحَدِهِمُ الْمَاءُ أَنْ يَدَعَهُ وَيَتَيَمَّمَ فَقُلْتُ لِشَقِيقٍ فَإِنَّمَا كَرِهَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لِهَذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ

I was with ʿAbdullah and Abu Musa; the latter asked the former, "O Abu ʿAbdur-Rahman! What is your opinion if somebody becomes Junub and no water is available?" ʿAbdullah replied, "Do not pray till water is found." Abu Musa said, "What do you say about the statement of ʿAmmar (who was ordered by the Prophet ﷺ to perform Tayammum). The Prophet ﷺ said to him: "Perform Tayammum and that would be sufficient." ʿAbdullah replied, "Don't you see that ʿUmar was not satisfied by ʿAmmar's statement?" Abu- Musa said, "All right, leave ʿAmmar's statement, but what will you say about this verse (of Tayammum)?" ʿAbdullah kept quiet and then said, "If we allowed it, then they would probably perform Tayammum even if water was available, if one of them found it (water) cold." The narrator added, "I said to Shaqiq, "Then did ʿAbdullah dislike to perform Tayammum because of this?" He replied, "Yes."
