Question:
Is tayammum a remover of ritual impurity, or is it a dispensation for prayer?
Answer:
There is a disagreement among the scholars. Some scholars say that it is a permission for prayer and not a remover of ritual impurity. Some scholars say that it is a remover of ritual impurity, like wudu'. This is the correct view, if Allah wills, that it is a remover of ritual impurity like wudu', because it is a substitute for wudu'. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called it a means of purification, so its ruling is the ruling of wudu'. Yes, this is the correct view, if Allah wills.
