The Correct Method of Tayammum

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks about tayammum: does one wipe the outer surface of the palms, or does one wipe the entire hands?

Answer:
One wipes; he strikes the ground with his hands in a single strike, then wipes his face with the inner part of his fingers and wipes his hands with his palms from that single strike. This is the correct method. Some scholars say there is no harm in wiping with two strikes: one strike for the face and one strike for the hands. However, this is the weaker position; this method is the weaker one.
