One who prays while in a state of major ritual impurity and does not perform the full ritual bath

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: If a man gets up at the end of the night and he is in a state of major ritual impurity, he performs the ablution for prayer, then prays, but he did not do it well because he was sleepy, and he prays without performing the full ritual bath for the lower part. Does he have to repeat the prayer?

The Shaykh:
Yes, there is no doubt that he must repeat it. He has to perform the full ritual bath and repeat the prayer, because major ritual impurity is not removed by the ablution for prayer; it is only removed by the full ritual bath.

The questioner:
And every recommended practice.

The Shaykh:
Do you see what is written on the paper? Hmm?

The questioner:
Forgetting or acting. Acting out of shyness or yesterday.

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to pray while in a state of major ritual impurity, whether out of shyness or for worship. It is necessary
And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselvesوَإِن كُنتُمْ جُنُبًا فَاطَّهَّرُوا
[Al-Ma'idah 5:6]
It is not permissible to pray while in a state of major ritual impurity, even if he is shy about performing the full ritual bath. Shyness is not an excuse for leaving off the full ritual bath. There is no shyness in the religion.
Allah is not too shy to tell the truthإن الله لا يستحيي من الحق
Sunan Ibn Majah 1924Sahih (Darussalam)
, and Allah is not shy of the truth. Yes.
