ليطهركم
So that He may purify you.
The Hanafi argument can be traced in four stages:
1. The revealed text explicitly uses the language of purification.
2. Tayammum is therefore classified as legally recognized purity.
3. Consequences follow for successive prayers, timing, and leading prayer.
4. Separate conditions still govern the expiry of that purity.
The alternative analysis is not simply a rejection of the verse; it characterizes the legal operation of tayammum and the scope of the term “purification” differently.
