فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلصَّفَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ ثَلاَثَةِ نَفَرٍ كَانُوا فِي سَفَرٍ أَحَدُهُمْ جُنُبٌ وَ اَلثَّانِي مَيِّتٌ وَاَلثَّالِثُ عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ وَ حَضَرَتِ اَلصَّلاَةُ وَ مَعَهُمْ مِنَ اَلْمَاءِ مَا يَكْفِي أَحَدَهُمْ مَنْ يَأْخُذُ اَلْمَاءَ وَ يَغْتَسِلُ بِهِ وَ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُونَ قَالَ« يَغْتَسِلُ اَلْجُنُبُ وَ يُدْفَنُ اَلْمَيِّتُ وَ تَيَمَّمَ اَلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ وُضُوءٌ لِأَنَّ اَلْغُسْلَ مِنَ اَلْجَنَابَةِ فَرِيضَةٌ وَ غُسْلَ اَلْمَيِّتِ سُنَّةٌ وَ اَلتَّيَمُّمَ لِلْآخَرِ جَائِزٌ».

Translation

As for the narration reported by Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Saffar, from Muhammad ibn Isa, from Abdul Rahman ibn Abi Najran, from a man who narrated to him, who said: I asked Abu al-Hasan (a.s) about three individuals traveling together: one of them is in a state of janabah, the second is deceased, and the third has not performed ablution. The time for prayer arrives, and they only have enough water for one of them. Who takes the water and what do they do?" Imam (a.s) replied: "The one in a state of janabah uses the water for ghusl, the deceased is buried, and the one without wudu performs tayammum. This is because ghusl for janabah is obligatory, washing the deceased is sunnah, and tayammum for the other is permissible."

Translation: Haydar Ali Shaykh ibn Muhammad — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
