Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on praying without wudu' if the weather is extremely cold?
Answer:
The prayer is not valid without wudu', but if one is unable to heat the water and there is danger in using it, he should perform tayammum with earth and pray; because earth is a substitute for water when one is unable to use it. Yes.
