Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible, if I get up for the Fajr prayer and I am in a state of major ritual impurity, for me to perform the ablution and pray immediately so that I can catch up with the congregation?

Answer:
No, you pray while in a state of major ritual impurity? No, you do not pray until you perform the full ritual bath to purify yourself. Yes. That is the end. Allah knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
