The ruling on repeating the prayer after performing tayammum when water is found

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: A person performed tayammum and prayed, then after finishing the prayer he found water. Does he have to repeat his prayer?

The Shaykh:
No. If he searched for water and did not find it, he performed tayammum and prayed, and then he found water after he had prayed, his prayer is valid.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh:
If he found water while he was in the prayer, or water came to him while he was praying, he has to perform wudu. But if he did not find water until after he had finished the prayer, and he had searched for it before the prayer and did not find it, then he is excused.
