If the time for prayer becomes narrow and one cannot find water, should one perform tayammum?

Question : I mean, for example, a person whose time has become narrow.

Answer : And he fears that if he occupies himself with obtaining water, the time will expire, or he performs tayammum and prays within the time. We say: he performs tayammum and prays within the time, because the original basis for the prescription of tayammum is for prayer within its time. Otherwise, it would be said to the person: wait until you find water, even if it is the remainder of a day or two days. If that is the case, then there is no difference between finding it nearby or far away, so he may perform tayammum. And due to the generality of the statement of Allah the Exalted: Then He said: "But if you do not find water, then perform tayammum." Yes. Yes.
