Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: In some areas, snow and ice cover the ground. Is tayammum (dry ablution with clean earth) permissible with them?
Answer:
No, with ice and snow, that is not part of the earth. Tayammum (dry ablution with clean earth) is done with parts of the earth, such as in a house or a covered place. As for snow and ice, they are not part of the earth; they are from water.
