Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 8
وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ[ اَلْحُسَيْنِ خ ل] اَلْعَامِرِيِّ مَوْلَى مَسْعُودِ بْنِ مُوسَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَأَلَهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَجْنَبَ فَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى اَلْمَاءِ وَ حَضَرَتِ اَلصَّلاَةُ فَتَيَمَّمَ بِالصَّعِيدِ ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِالْمَاءِ وَ لَمْ يَغْتَسِلْ وَ اِنْتَظَرَ مَاءً آخَرَ وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ فَدَخَلَ وَقْتُ اَلصَّلاَةِ اَلْأُخْرَى وَلَمْ يَنْتَهِ إِلَى اَلْمَاءِ وَ خَافَ فَوْتَ اَلصَّلاَةِ قَالَ« يَتَيَمَّمُ وَ يُصَلِّي فَإِنَّ تَيَمُّمَهُ اَلْأَوَّلَ اِنْتَقَضَ حِينَ مَرَّ بِالْمَاءِ وَ لَمْ يَغْتَسِلْ».
And with this chain of narration, from al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Ibn Sinan, from Ibn Maskan, from al-Husayn al-‘Amiri, the servant of Mas‘ud ibn Musa, who said:
Someone narrated to me that he asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who became in a state of major impurity (janabah) but could not find water, and the time for prayer arrived, so he performed tayammum with the soil. Then he passed by water but did not perform ghusl, waiting for another source of water. The time for the next prayer entered, and he still had not reached water, and he feared missing the prayer. Imam عليه السلام said: "He should perform tayammum and pray, for his first tayammum became invalid when he passed by the water and did not perform ghusl."
