Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once we set out on a journey. One of us was struck by a stone which wounded his head, then that person had a wet dream. He asked his companions:“Do you think I am allowed to perform tayammum?”The companions replied:“As long as you are able to use water, in our view, there is no concession for you.”So that person performed ghusl and passed away. We presented ourselves before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He was informed about this, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“They have killed him. May Allah destroy them. Why did they not ask when they did not know? The cure for ignorance is to ask. It would have been sufficient for him to perform tayammum (to tie a bandage) and (the narrator is in doubt, perhaps these are the words) to wrap a bandage over his wound and wipe over it, and wash the rest of his body.”Here, the doubt is from the narrator named Musa. Shaykh Abu Bakr states: The people of Makkah are unique in narrating this narration, and the people of Jazirah have interpreted it. They have not narrated it from Ata’ from Sayyiduna Jabir. Only the narrator named Zubair has narrated this narration, and it is not authentic. Imam Awza‘i has narrated the opposite of this narration, which is transmitted from Ata’ from Sayyiduna Abdullah. There is also disagreement in the narration from Imam Awza‘i. According to one narration, it is transmitted from Ata’, and according to another narration, it is said:“I have come to know this from Ata’.”And Imam Awza‘i has transmitted the last part of this narration as a mursal narration from Ata’ from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and this is correct. Ibn Abi Hatim states: I asked my father and the narrator Shaykh Abu Zur‘ah about this, so both of them replied: This narration has been transmitted by Ibn al-‘Ashireen, from Awza‘i, from Isma‘il, from Ata’, from Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both). These scholars have transmitted it as an authentic narration.
