Sunan An-Nasai

"I was sitting with Abdullah and Abu Musa, and Abu Musa said: 'Have you not heard what 'Ammar said to Umar: 'The Messenger of Allah (saw) sent me on an errand and I became Junub, and I could not find water, so I rolled in the earth then I came to the Prophet (saw) and told him about that.' He said: 'It would have been sufficient for you to do this,' and he struck the earth with his hands, then wiped his hands, then knocked them together to remove the dust, then he wiped his right hand with his left and his left hand with his right, palm to palm, and wiped his face.'" Then Abdullah said: "Did you not see that Umar was not convinced by what 'Ammar said:" (Sahih)

"I heard Imran bin Husain (say) that the Prophet (saw) saw a man who was by himself and did not pray with the people. He said: 'O so and so, what kept you from praying with the people?' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have become Junub and there is no water.' He said: 'You should use earth for that will suffice you.'" (Sahih)

"The Messenger of Allah (saw) sent Usaid bin Hudair and some other people to look for a necklace that Aisha had left behind in a place where she had stopped (while traveling). The time for prayer came and they did not have Wudu, and they could not find any water, so they prayed without Wudu. They mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah (saw), and Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed the verse of Tayammum. Usaid bin Hudair said: 'May Allah reward you with good, for by Allah, nothing ever happened to you that you dislike, but Allah makes it good for you and the Muslims.'" (Sahih)

that a man became Junub and did not pray, then he came to the Prophet (saw) and mentioned that to him. He said: "You did the right thing." Another man became Junub and performed Tayammum and prayed, and he came to him and he said something similar to what he had told the other man - meaning, you did the right thing. (Sahih)
