مسائل المنتخبه (Articles Of Islamic Acts) - الخوئي، السيد أبوالقاسم - الصفحة ١٥٥ - THINGS ON WHICH TAYAMMUM MAY BE PERFORMED
if performed in a state of forgetfulness or negligence, is in order.
However, if a person usurps something himself and forgets that he has
usurped it and performs tayammum on it or if he usurps a property and
forgets that he has usurped it, and places the thing on which he is
performing tayammum on that property, or performs tayammum in the space
of that property, the same orders apply to him which apply to a person
who performs an act intentionally.
٧٠٥. If a person is imprisoned in a usurped
place and both the water and earth of that place are usurped he should
offer prayers with tayommum.
٧٠٦. The thing on which a person is performing
tayammum should if possible, have, on the basis of precaution dust which
should stick to the hands, and after striking hands on it, he should
shake them so that the dust may fall off.
٧٠٧. It is abominable to perform tayammum on the
earth of a pit, or a path or the saline earth on which a layer of salt
has not settled. In case, however, a layer of salt has settled on the
earth, performance of tayammum on it is void.
