  • جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَجْنَبْتُ فَلَمْ أُصِبِ الْمَاءَ. فَقَالَ عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ أَمَا تَذْكُرُ أَنَّا كُنَّا فِي سَفَرٍ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ فَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَلَمْ تُصَلِّ، وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَتَمَعَّكْتُ فَصَلَّيْتُ، فَذَكَرْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ هَكَذَا ". فَضَرَبَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِكَفَّيْهِ الأَرْضَ، وَنَفَخَ فِيهِمَا ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِهِمَا وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ.

    Abd ar-Rahman ibn Abza reported: A man came to Umar ibn al-Khattab and said, “I have entered a state of janabah and have not found water.” Ammar ibn Yasir said to Umar ibn al-Khattab, “Do you not remember that we were on a journey, you and …

  • بِهَذَا، وَضَرَبَ شُعْبَةُ بِيَدَيْهِ الأَرْضَ، ثُمَّ أَدْنَاهُمَا مِنْ فِيهِ، ثُمَّ مَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ.

    Ammar reported the same. And Shu'bah struck the ground with his hands, then brought them close to his mouth, then wiped his face and his hands.

  • قَالَ عَمَّارٌ لِعُمَرَ تَمَعَّكْتُ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ " يَكْفِيكَ الْوَجْهُ وَالْكَفَّانِ ".

    Abd ar-Rahman ibn Abza reported: Ammar said to Umar, “I rolled (in the dust), then I came to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said, ‘The face and the hands are sufficient for you.’”
