حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، نا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، ثنا عَمِّي ، نا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ عُمَيْرٍ مَوْلَى عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ ، عَنْ أَبِي جُهَيْمِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الصِّمَّةِ ، " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَهَبَ نَحْوَ بِئْرِ جَمَلٍ لِيَقْضِيَ حَاجَتَهُ ، فَلَقِيَهُ رَجُلٌ وَهُوَ مُقْبِلٌ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى أَقْبَلَ عَلَى الْجِدَارِ ، فَمَسَحَ بِوَجْهِهِ وَيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَدَّ عَلَيْهِ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Juham (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was going towards the well of Jamal in order to relieve himself. He met a man who was coming from the front, and that man greeted him with Salam. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not reply to his Salam. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to a wall, performed masah (wiping) over his blessed face and both arms (i.e., performed tayammum), and then replied to the Salam.
