Verse of Tayammum

The applicability of Tayammum arises under certain conditions that denote a lack of accessibility to water. The Shia jurisprudential framework categorizes these conditions meticulously, emphasizing the importance of intention and necessity. Key factors include:

• Unavailability of Water: If water is completely absent in a given locality, Tayammum becomes requisite.
• Health Concerns: Should the use of water precipitate illness or exacerbate an existing medical condition, Tayammum may be invoked.
• Overwhelming Hardship: Situations where water is available but procurement necessitates significant hardship or risk can also justify the recourse to Tayammum.

These stipulations underscore a compassionate legal framework that prioritizes the believers’ welfare over rigid adherence to ritualistic constraints.
