فلا يجمعُ بين صلاتينِ مفروضتينِ بتيممٍ واحدٍ، ويجوز أن يُضمَّ إلى الفريضةِ نوافلُ معها
Two obligatory prayers cannot be combined with a single dry ablution, but it is permissible to add optional prayers to it.
وَيَجُوزُ it is permissible
'and it is permitted' — turning from the ban to an allowance. Its subject is the whole 'that... be added' clause that follows; the verb-first order holds. Optional prayers, unlike a second obligatory one, MAY be joined.
ويجوزُ التيممُ للنوافلِ غيرِ المؤقّتةِ في سائرِ الأوقاتِ غيرِ أوقاتِ الكراهة
It is permissible to perform a dry ablution for non-time-bound optional prayers at all times except those of dislike.
وَيَجُوزُ and it is permissible
'and it is permitted' — the affirmative, contrasting with the timing-ban. Its subject, 'the tayammum,' follows. For one category it IS allowed broadly, as the rest explains.
فلما حل الهدم بودي سارة منع الولدان يجوز،
When the ruin befell Sarah’s town, children were no longer allowed to pass.
يَجُوزُ to pass
A present-tense verb meaning 'to pass / be allowed to pass', its 'he/it' subject built in, completing what the children were forbidden. After a verb of forbidding, this present-tense verb names the action that was barred, so it spells out exactly what they could no longer do.
فَلَمَّا حَلَّ الْهَدْمُ بِوُدِّ سَارَةَ مَنْعُ الْوِلْدَيْنِ يَجُوزُ،
When destruction befell Sarah's household, preventing the two sons was permissible.
يَجُوزُ is permissible
A present-tense verb 'is permissible', with the implicit 'it' subject being the act of preventing. It delivers the verdict of the sentence, that withholding the two sons was allowed once the calamity struck; it closes the conditional set up by 'when'.
