  • Tayammum In Winter

    Posted by Tushar Dwivedi on December 8, 2021 at 10:46 am

    Assalamoalekum bro., my question is that — Can a person do tayammum in place of wudu or ghusl in winter? And second question is that — If Allah makes tayammum as a secondary option for gaining purity, So, can any person do tayammum without any reason as a secondary purifier and is his salah valid?

    The principle of relaxation in case of ibadah (worship category) is based on principle of usar (‘ghair mamoli mushaqqat’ / ‘undue difficulty‘) and for other prohibitions (‘mohramat’/’things which have been declared Haram’), the relaxation is based on iztiraar (becoming impossible to do or when it becomes a matter of life and death). More can be listened to in the following response of Ghamidi Sahab:

    Since Ghusal and Wuzu belong to ibadah category, therefore, to avail any relaxation in this regard, principle of usar will apply. In winters, considering the level of difficulty and basing on the directive of Tayammum in Quran, Prophet Muhammad (sws) allowed Masah over socks which are worn after performing complete Wuzu (for 24 hours). Therefore, in order to perform Masah on other body parts, the level of ‘usar’ (‘ghair mamoli mushaqqat’ / ‘undue difficulty’) should increase as compared to the one that was originally necessitating masah over socks. Same goes for Tayammum, difficulty that one is facing is something that cannot be countered with Masah anymore.

      Moderators are here to facilitate the discussion in the light of teachings of Mr. Javed Ahmed Ghamidi by giving proper references to his videos, lectures or his books (in majority of the cases). You should refer to those responses of Ghamidi Sahab provided by the Moderators and can ignore their own undertanding of the matter.

      You can also refer the matter to our scholar Dr. irfan shahzad, who is available in this forum, in case of any confusion

      You can also post a question to Al-Mawrid’s official query service:
