Question:
A person prayed in the desert using tayammum, and then, after he finished the prayer, someone came and brought him water: does he have to repeat the prayer?

Answer:
Did he not have water at first? Did he lack it?
The student: Absolutely not.
The Shaykh: No, he does not repeat it.
Q: And if he repeats the prayer?
The Shaykh: No, he is not required to repeat it.
Q: Is there a hadith that if a person wants to pray...?
The Shaykh: It is mentioned in a hadith that two men prayed and they did not have water, and then they found water afterwards. One of them repeated the wudu and the prayer, while the other did not repeat it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the one who did not repeat it:
You followed the Sunnah and your prayer is acceptable.أصبت السنة، وأجزأتك صلاتك

You have two rewardsلك الأجر مرتين
