This is a great introductory course for anyone interested in studying Fiqh (the practical Islamic rulings which are derived from detailed evidence and proof).  Shaykh Ahmed Abdelwahab teaches from the famous, concise beginner's level text of the Hanbali Madhhab, "Umdat At-Talib".  In this course (part 4), we learn about the etiquettes of ghusl (washing the entire body) & tayammum (purification using pure earth).
