سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُجْنِبُ وَ مَعَهُ مِنَ الْمَاءِ قَدْرُ مَا يَكْفِيهِ لِشُرْبِهِ أَ يَتَيَمَّمُ أَوْ يَتَوَضَّأُ قَالَ التَّيَمُّمُ أَفْضَلُ أَ لَا تَرَى أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ عَلَيْهِ نِصْفُ الطَّهُورِ .
Translation
Al Husayn Bin Muhammad,f rom Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Al Washa, from hammad Bin Usman, from Ibn Abu Yafour who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the man who comes to be with sexual impurity and with him is the water of a measurement of what would suffice him for his drinking. Should he perform <span class="iTxt">Tayammum</span> or an Ablution <span class="iTxt">(Wudhu)</span>?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The <span class="iTxt">Tayammum</span> is superior. Do you not see that rather half the purification has been made to be upon him?’
