Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man was traveling and fell asleep, then he woke up for the second call to the dawn prayer while in a state of major ritual impurity. He was unable to perform the full ritual bath due to the hardship it would cause him. His question is: Is it permissible for him to perform only the ablution for prayer and catch up with the congregation?
Answer:
No, that does not suffice. He has water, he has heaters, and he has [the means]. I mean, he should not go to the congregation; he should pray in his house. He should purify himself and pray in his house, because he is excused. Yes.
