The ruling on using handkerchiefs for tayammum
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. And may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad. Regarding the same matter, if a person remains with handkerchiefs, does this necessitate that he use them, or that he use three handkerchiefs? Even though a person is able to remain with handkerchiefs.
Answer:
The intended meaning, and Allah knows best, is cleaning and removing the trace. If he removes it with three wipes, even with a single stone, they say even with a single stone that has branches, meaning each branch takes the place of a stone. Likewise, handkerchiefs: if he removes it with three wipes, meaning he does not restrict it to two wipes or a single wipe; it is necessary that it be three wipes or more. If he rubs it with three wipes on the handkerchiefs, that suffices; they take the place of the stones.
