Question :

What is the ruling on performing dry ablution (tayammum) instead of the ritual bath due to severe cold?



The Answer :

Whoever is sick such that he cannot use water, or finds the water cold and heating it is not possible, and the person would be harmed by using cold water, it is permissible for him to perform tayammum. He must make up what he prayed with tayammum, because this is a place where there is water. And Allah the Almighty knows best.
