Hadith 33861
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
used to do tayammum up to his elbows.
Malik was asked about
how tayammum was done and what parts were covered and he said, "Strike
the ground once for the face and once for the arms and wipe them to
the elbows."
Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 92

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
and he were approaching Juruf. When they got to Mirbad, Abdullah got
down and did tayammum with some good earth. He wiped his face, and his
arms to the elbows, and then prayed. Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 91

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abd arRahman ibn Harmala that
a man asked Said ibn al-Musayyab about what a man who was junub and
had done tayammum should do when he came across water. Said said,
"When he comes across water he must do ghusl for what comes after."
Malik said about some one who had a wet dream while he was on
a journey and there was only enough water for wudu and he was not
thirsty and so he did not need to use it for that, "Let him wash his
genitals, and whatever the semen has fallen on, with the water and
then he does tayammum with good earth as Allah has ordered him."
Malik was asked whether a man who was junub and wished to do
tayammum but could only find salty earth could do tayammum with that
earth, and whether it was disapproved of to pray on salty earth. He
said, "There is no harm in praying on salty earth or in using it to do
tayammum, because Allah the Blessed and Exalted has said, '...and do
tayammum with good earth.' One is purified by tayammum with everything
that is earth, whether it is salty or otherwise." Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 93
