Pure Dust for Tayammum تیمم کے لیے خالص خاک

One of the distinctive features of the Ummah of Muhammad (SAW) is that the earth has been made a means of attaining purity (Sahee Muslim 523, Sunnan Abi Dawood 489).

In other words, if one is not able to use water for the purpose of purification, one is permitted to wipe parts of the body with clean earth or sand, This is called Tayammum.
