Hadith 33863
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that a man
questioned the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, saying, "What is permitted me from my wife when she is
menstruating?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "Let her wrap her waist-wrapper round herself
tightly, and then what is above that is your concern."
Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 94

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

Yahya related to me from Malik from Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman
that on one occasion A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, was sleeping with the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, in one garment, when suddenly she
jumped up sharply. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said to her, "What's the matter with you? Are you
losing blood?", meaning menstruating. She said, "Yes." He said, "Wrap
your waist-wrapper tightly about you, and return to your sleeping-
place." Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 95
