It was narrated from Ibn Abdulrahman Bin Abza; from his father; that a man came to Umar; may Allah be please with him; and said: I have become Junub and I cannot find any water. Umar said: Do not pray. Ammar said: Do you not remember; O Commander of the Believers; when you and I were on a campaign and became Junub; and we could not find any water. You did not pray; but I rolled in the dust then prayed. When we came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I told him about that and he said: This would have been sufficient for you; and then Prophet ﷺ struck the earth with his hands then blew on them and wiped his face and hands - one of the narrators Salamah was uncertain and said: I do not know if he said it should be up to the elbows or just the hands. - Umar said: We will let you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself. One of the narrators Shubah said: He used to say the hands; face and forearms. Another Mansur said to him: What are you saying? No one mentions the forearms except you. Salamah was not certain and said: I do not know whether he mentioned the forearms or not.
