Tayammum and There is Grease on His Hands

Question
What is the ruling for someone who performed tayammum while there is grease on his hands?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: it is not sufficient for him to perform tayammum; because it is a condition for the validity of tayammum that the substance preventing wiping on the skin, such as wax and fat, must be removed; as it prevents thoroughness, and God knows best.
