Asalamualikum sheikh i got a few questions: 1: Can tayamum be done on grass? What about plant soil? 2: For ghusl is it mandatory for water to reach inside all openings? Such as inside ears or back passage? Do I just let water flow or should i use my fingers? 3: Is there any mandatory order for ghusl

Soil is part of the earth, so tayammum on it is fine. Grass is not earth, so the scholars state it is not used unless earth dust on it clings to your hand. For ghusl, water flowing over the whole body, including the ears, is enough without fingers or rubbing, and there is no obligatory order.
