حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَنْطَاکِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ خُرَيْقٍ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ خَرَجْنَا فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَ رَجُلًا مِنَّا حَجَرٌ فَشَجَّهُ فِي رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ احْتَلَمَ فَسَأَلَ أَصْحَابَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَجِدُونَ لِي رُخْصَةً فِي التَّيَمُّمِ فَقَالُوا مَا نَجِدُ لَکَ رُخْصَةً وَأَنْتَ تَقْدِرُ عَلَی الْمَائِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُخْبِرَ بِذَلِکَ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمْ اللَّهُ أَلَا سَأَلُوا إِذْ لَمْ يَعْلَمُوا فَإِنَّمَا شِفَائُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالُ إِنَّمَا کَانَ يَکْفِيهِ أَنْ يَتَيَمَّمَ وَيَعْصِرَ أَوْ يَعْصِبَ شَکَّ مُوسَی عَلَی جُرْحِهِ خِرْقَةً ثُمَّ يَمْسَحَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَغْسِلَ سَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 336
Jabir said: We set out on a journey. One of our people was hurt by a stone, that injured his head. The then had a sexual dream. He asked his fellow travelers: Do you find a concession for me to perform tayammum? They said: We do not find any concession for you while you can use water. He took a bath and died. When we came to the Prophet ﷺ, the incident was reported to him. He said: They killed him, may Allah kill them! Could they not ask when they did not know ? The fire of ignorance is inquiry. It was enough for him to perform tayammum and to our some drops of water or bind a bandage over the wound (the narrator Musa was doubtful); then he should have wiped over it and washed the rest of his body.
