The Ruling on Using Wet Wipes When Water is Unavailable

Question
Is it permissible to use wet wipes instead of performing tayammum?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is not sufficient; because the condition for washing in ablution is the flow, which is not achieved with wet tissues. And the dry ablution is performed on types of earth that do not burn or imprint, and tissues are not among them. And God knows best.
