حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ، عَنْ ذَرٍّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أَجْنَبْتُ فَلَمْ أَجِدْ مَاءً فَقَالَ: لَا تُصَلِّ. فَقَالَ عَمَّارٌ: أَمَا تَذْكُرُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، إِذْ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَأَجْنَبْنَا فَلَمْ نَجِدْ مَاءً، فَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَلَمْ تُصَلِّ، وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَتَمَعَّكْتُ فِي التُّرَابِ وَصَلَّيْتُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ أَنْ تَضْرِبَ بِيَدَيْكَ الْأَرْضَ، ثُمَّ تَنْفُخَ، ثُمَّ تَمْسَحَ بِهِمَا وَجْهَكَ، وَكَفَّيْكَ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: اتَّقِ اللهَ يَا عَمَّارُ قَالَ: إِنْ شِئْتَ لَمْ أُحَدِّثْ بِهِ قَالَ الْحَكَمُ: وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ ابْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبْزَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ ذَرٍّ قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ، عَنْ ذَرٍّ، فِي هَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ الَّذِي ذَكَرَ الْحَكَمُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: نُوَلِّيكَ مَا تَوَلَّيْتَ.

A man came to 'Umar رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌and said: I am (at times) affected by seminal emission but find no water. He ('Umar رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌) told him not to say prayer. 'Ammar then said. Do you remember, O Commander of the Faithful, when I and you were in a military detachment and we had had a seminal emission and did not find water (for taking bath) and you did not say prayer, but as for myself I rolled in dust and said prayer, and (when it was mentioned before) the Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: It was enough for you to strike the ground with your hands and then blow (the dust) and then wipe your face and palms. Umar رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ said: 'Ammar, fear Allah. He said: If you so like, I would not narrate it. A hadith like this has been transmitted with the same chain of transmitters but for the words: 'Umar رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ said: We hold you responsible for what you claim.
