Tayammum for the one who prolongs ghusl due to waswasah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I say that if I want to perform ghusl, my ghusl takes a long time, for example an hour, either because of waswasah or because of laziness in my movements. He says: And I fear that the time will pass during this ghusl while I am in the house, so is it permissible for me to perform tayammum in this situation?

Answer:
No, do not perform tayammum while you have access to water. But you must leave the waswasah, seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan, purify yourself and pray, and do not follow the waswasah. Leave these matters. Yes.
