Chapter on Tayammum and Its Rules

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حُكَيْمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ عَنِ اِبْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« إِنْ أَصَابَهُ اَلثَّلْجُ فَلْيَنْظُرْ لِبْدَ سَرْجِهِ فَيَتَيَمَّمُ مِنْ غُبَارِهِ أَوْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ مَعَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ فِي حَالٍ لاَ يَجِدُ إِلاَّ اَلطِّينَ فَلاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يَتَيَمَّمَ مِنْهُ».
Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub narrated from Mu'awiya ibn Hakim, from Abdullah ibn Al-Mughira, from Ibn Bukayr, from Zurara, from Abu Ja'far عليه السلام, who said: Imam عليه السلام said: "If he is affected by snow, let him look for the saddle pad of his mount and perform tayammum from its dust or something else he has with him. And if he is in a situation where he finds nothing but mud, then there is no harm in performing tayammum with it."
