Sunan An-Nasai

"We went out with the Messenger of Allah (saw) on one of his journeys, and when we were in Al-Baida' or Dhat Al-Jaish, a necklace of mine broke and fell. The Messenger of Allah (saw) stayed there looking for it and the people stayed with him. There was no water near them, and they did not have water with them. The people came to Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, and said: 'Do you see what Aisha has done? She has made the Messenger of Allah (saw) and the people stop and they are not near any water and they do not have water with them.' Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, came while the Messenger of Allah (saw) was resting his head on my thigh and had gone to sleep. He said: 'You have detained the Messenger of Allah (saw) and the people, and they are not near any water and they do not have any water with them.'" Aisha said: "Abu Bakr rebuked me and said whatever Allah willed he would say. He started poking me on my hip, and the only thing that prevented me from moving was the fact that the Messenger of Allah (saw) was resting on my thigh. The Messenger of Allah (saw) slept until morning when he woke up without any water. Then Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed the verse of Tayammum. Usaid bin Hudair said: 'This is not the first time we have been blessed because of you, O family of Abu Bakr!'" She said: "Then we made the camel that I had been riding stand up, and we found the necklace beneath it." (Sahih)

(the freed slave of Ibn Abbas) that he heard him say: "Abdullah bin Yasar the freed slave of Maimunah, and I came and entered upon Abu juhaim bin Al-Harith bin Al-Sammah Al-Ansari. Abu Juhaim said: 'The Messenger of Allah (saw) came back from the direction of Bi'r Al-Jamal and was met by a man who greeted him with Salam, but the Messenger of Allah (saw) did not return the greeting until he turned to the wall and wiped his face and hands, then he returned the greeting.'"

from his father that a man came to Umar and said: "I have become Junub and I do not have any water." Umar said: "Do not pray." But 'Ammar bin Yasir said: "O Commander of the Believers! Don't you remember when you and I were on a campaign and we became Junub and could not find water? You did not pray, but I rolled in the dust and prayed. Then we came to the Prophet (saw) and told him about that, and he said: 'It would have been sufficient for you (to do this),' then the Prophet (saw) struck his hands on the ground and blew on them, then wiped his face and hands with them'" - (one of the narrators) Salamah was uncertain and did not know whether that was up to the elbows or just the hands. And Umar said: "We will let you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself." (Sahih)

"I became Junub while I was on a camel and I could not find any water, so I rolled in the dust like an animal. I came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and told him about that, and he said: 'Tayammum would have been sufficient for you.'" (Sahih)

"The Messenger of Allah (saw) stopped to rest at the end of the night in Uwlat Al-Jaish. His wife Aisha was with him and her necklace of Zifar beads* broke and fell. The army was detained looking for that necklace of hers until the break of the light of dawn and the people had no water with them. Abu Bakr got angry with her and said: 'You have detained the people and they do not have any water.' Then Allah the Mighty and Sublime revealed the concession allowing Tayammum with clean earth. So the Muslims got up with the Messenger of Allah (saw) and struck the earth with their hands and did not strike them together to knock off any of the dust, then they wiped their faces and arms up to the shoulders, and from the inner side of their arms up to the armpits." (Sahih) *Black and white Yemeni beads.

"We were with Umar when a man came to him and said: 'O Commander of the Believers! Sometimes we stay for a month or two without finding any water. Umar said: As if I did not find water, I would not pray until I found water.' 'Ammar bin Yasir said: 'Do you remember, O Commander of the Believers, when you were in such and such a place and we were rearing the camels, and you know that we became Junub?' He said: 'Yes.' As for me I rolled in the dust, then we came to the Prophet (saw) and he laughed and said: "Clean earth would have been sufficient for you." And he struck his hands on the earth then blew on them, then he wiped his face and part of his forearms. He (Umar) said: "Fear Allah, O 'Ammar!'" He said: 'O Commander of the Believers! If you wish I will not mention it.' He said: 'No, we will let you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself.'" (Sahih)

from his father, that man asked Umar bin Al-Khattab about Tayammum and he did not know what to say. 'Ammar said: "Do you remember when we were on a campaign, and I became Junub and rolled in the dust, then I came to the Prophet (saw) and he said: 'This would have been sufficient.'" (One of the narrators) Shu'bah struck his hands on his knees and blew into his hands, then he wiped his face and palms with them once. (Sahih)
