The Ruling on Tayammum on a Blanket

Question:
May Allah reward you. Some of the sick say that they perform tayammum on a blanket, even though they have a box of tayammum dust available, which they would find if they looked for it. What is our duty as those engaged in religious awareness?

Answer:
Wiping over a blanket is not sufficient, because it has no dust on it. No, pure dust is required. Allah the Exalted said: . Al-Sa'id is the earth that has dust on it, or dust alone, such as on a bed or a wall. If pure dust is found, whether it is on earth or on something other than earth, that is sufficient. As for something that has no dust, it is of no benefit.
