Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And so, may Allah preserve you, he asks: Sometimes we are in the desert and the weather is cold, so is it permissible for us to resort to tayammum instead of using water?
Answer:
If you fear for yourselves from using water, you perform tayammum, just as 'Amr ibn al-'As (may Allah be pleased with him) did, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) approved of that for him. If you fear for yourselves from using water, fearing harm to yourselves or illness, then you may perform tayammum. Yes.
