Is it permissible to perform more than one prayer—obligatory or supererogatory—with a single dry ablution (tayammum) as long as it is not invalidated, or is it that only one obligatory prayer is allowed with a single tayammum? And what is the validity of the statement that it is permissible to perform a supererogatory prayer immediately after an obligatory prayer with a single tayammum without speaking or uttering anything, otherwise, the tayammum must be redone?

The majority of scholars hold the view that it is not permissible to pray two obligatory prayers with one , nor to pray an obligatory prayer with a tayammum performed for a supererogatory one. However, it is permissible to pray more than one supererogatory prayer with a single tayammum, just as it is permissible to pray as many supererogatory prayers as one wishes with a tayammum performed for an obligatory prayer.
