A menstruating woman who is unable to perform (ritual bath) after the cessation of her menstruation, either due to an inability to move or a fear of harm from using water, should perform (dry ablution) instead of ghusl.
Tayammum involves striking pure earth once and wiping the face and hands.
Tayammum removes the state of ritual impurity (), and it is permissible for the menstruating woman to pray more than one obligatory prayer with it, as long as her tayammum is not invalidated. It is like water ablution (wudu') in that it permits praying several obligatory prayers with it.
