The Ruling on Tayammum Due to Lack of Hot Water
If a person wakes up late at dawn in cold weather and is in a state of janabah, and while waiting for the water to heat up, the sun may have risen, is tayammum permissible in this case? If the answer is yes, is it necessary to make up the prayer after washing with water?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: As long as water is available and can be heated, it is not considered an excuse that permits performing tayammum and praying, even if there is a fear of missing the time. And God knows best.
