From him, from Muhammad ibn Sinan, from Abdullah ibn Muskan, and Fadala, from Al-Husayn ibn Uthman, from Abdullah ibn Muskan, from Muhammad Al-Halabi, who said: I said to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "A junub (one in a state of major ritual impurity) has a small amount of water with him, and if he uses it for ghusl (ritual purification), he fears thirst. Should he perform ghusl with it or perform tayammum (dry ablution)?" Imam عليه السلام said: "Rather, he should perform tayammum, and the same applies if he intends to perform wudu (ablution)."
