What is the ruling concerning the sequence (Muwalah) between the hand wipe and the face wipe in Tayammum?

Chapter on Tayammum

Al-Mughni

Book of Purification

Book 2 · Issue 3 · Bab 10

Open in Qurani

Primary text

If a significant gap occurs between the wiping of the hands and the face, and the opinion mandating immediate sequence (Muwalah) is held, the entire Tayammum must be restarted to fulfill the sequence requirement.

Supporting text

The determination of whether the gap is considered long or short refers back to the measure established for ritual purity (Taharah), as Tayammum is a subsidiary ruling to it.
