Narration on Rolling on the Ground and Tayammum after Janabah
Hadith 144
144 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي خِفَافٍ نَاجِيَةَ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ: قَالَ عَمَّارٌ لِعُمَرَ: أَمَا تَذْكُرُ إِذْ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ فِي الْإِبِلِ فَأَصَابَتْنِي جَنَابَةٌ فَتَمَعَّكْتُ كَمَا تَمَعَّكُ الدَّابَّةُ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ التَّيَمُّمُ»
Najiyah bin Ka'b narrates: Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): Do you remember, when you and I were herding camels, I became junub (in a state of major ritual impurity), so I rolled on the ground as an animal rolls. Then I presented myself before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and we mentioned this matter before him, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "For you, it would have been sufficient to perform tayammum in its place."
