565. It was narrated that 'Ammâr bin Yâsir said: " 'Aishah dropped a necklace and she stayed behind to look for it. Abu Bakr went to 'Aishah and got angry with her for keeping the people waiting. Then Allâh revealed the concession allowing dry ablution, so we wiped our arms up to the shoulders.[1] Abu Bakr went to 'Aishah and said: 'I did not know that you are blessed.'" (Sahih)
565 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: سَقَطَ عِقْدُ عَائِشَةَ، فَتَخَلَّفَتْ لِالْتِمَاسِهِ، فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَتَغَيَّظَ عَلَيْهَا فِي حَبْسِهَا النَّاسَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الرُّخْصَةَ فِي التَّيَمُّمِ، قَالَ: فَمَسَحْنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ: «مَا عَلِمْتُ إِنَّكِ لَمُبَارَكَةٌ»

The Hadith clearly establishes the excellence of 'Aishah, the Mother of the Believers ﷺ, that, because of a momentary inconvenience, a great facility in the form of dry ablution was granted to the entire community of believers. Ordainment to wipe the head up to the shoulders was later abrogated. Dry ablution, as clearly indicated in other Ahâdith, is only necessary now over the face and the palms of the two hands.
