Performing Tayammum With Bricks Which Have Paint On Them

One can perform Tayammum on bricks that have paint and cement on them; with the proviso that the paint is not oil-based or made of something which is not genus of the earth.

Hence, one cannot make Tayammum on walls that are painted using oil-based paints. Notwithstanding this, if there is dust on the oil-based painted wall or anything on which one cannot perform Tayammum, one will be allowed to make Tayammum with that item. Moreover, in the present era, most paints are oil-based or made from something which is not from the genus of earth; therefore, one should refrain performing Tayammum on them.
