Ruling on Tayammum When There is Water Insufficient for Ghusl

Question
Is it permissible to perform tayammum for ghusl when there is a small amount of water sufficient only for wudu, and should one perform wudu with this little water after tayammum for ghusl?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: he performs tayammum and prays, and if his wudu is invalidated, he performs wudu with this water, and God knows best.
