Sunan Abi Dawud 329 (Book 1, Hadith 329) #20620
Performing Tayammum in Place of Wudu

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performing tayammum when he was unable to find water.

'Umair, the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas, said that he heard him say: I and 'Abd Allah b. Yasar, the freed slave of Maimunah, wife of the Prophet , came and entered upon Abu al-Juhaim b. al-Harith b. al-Simmat al-Ansari. Abu al-Juhaim said: The Messenger of Allah came from Bir Jamal (a place near Medina) and a man met him and saluted him. The Messenger of Allah did not return the salutation until he came to a wall and wiped his face and hands and then returned the salutation (ie after performing tayammum).
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ اللَّيْثِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ جَدِّي، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، عَنْ عُمَيْرٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ أَقْبَلْتُ أَنَا وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، مَوْلَى مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي الْجُهَيْمِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الصِّمَّةِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ فَقَالَ أَبُو الْجُهَيْمِ أَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مِنْ نَحْوِ بِئْرِ جَمَلٍ فَلَقِيَهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمَ حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى جِدَارٍ فَمَسَحَ بِوَجْهِهِ وَيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمَ

Perform Tayammun in place of Wudhu if there is no access to Water or if one cannot use it due to illness or injury
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of performing tayammum when one is unable to find water for wudu. It tells us that even the Prophet Muhammad himself performed tayammum in place of wudu when he was travelling from Bir Jamal and could not find any water nearby. This teaches us that it is permissible to perform tayammum instead of wudu if there is no access to water or if one cannot use it due to illness or injury. It also shows us the importance of being mindful and respectful towards others by returning their salutations after performing tayammum as a sign of respect for them.
