Tayammum when water runs out in the mosque and repeating the prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If the water runs out and some of the people perform tayammum in the mosque, then after they finish their prayer, a person said to them, “There is drinking water available. Why did you not perform wudu with it?” So they asked me, and I said: I see that for the sake of peace of mind, you should repeat the prayer after performing wudu with this water. What is your opinion? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Did the water run out for the entire town, such that there is no water in the town at all and no means to obtain it, so they perform tayammum? Or is the shortage only in part of the town? If it is only in part of the town, it is not permissible for them to perform tayammum. They can bring water from the other side and perform wudu. As the questioner mentioned, there is drinking water here, and it is available in the public places and shops. So they must repeat the prayer. They must repeat the prayer, because it is not valid for them to perform tayammum when they are able to obtain water. It is permissible to perform wudu from a water cooler; there is no harm in doing so when there is a need. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
