It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that some people asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saying: "We stay away from water (on journeys or in the countryside) for three months, and five months, at a time, and we cannot find water, while among us are those in a state of major impurity (junub), menstruating women and women with post-natal bleeding (so what should they do)?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Hold to the earth (that is, perform tayammum)."
We do not know any other report of Sulayman al-Ahwal (may Allah have mercy on him) from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) besides this one, and no one narrated it from Ibrahim bin Yazid (may Allah have mercy on him) except Waki' (may Allah have mercy on him). This report is also narrated from Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) through another chain: al-Muthanna bin al-Sabbah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated it from Amr bin Shu'ayb (may Allah have mercy on him), from Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him).
