Question:
I woke up from sleep in a state of major ritual impurity, and the weather was cold, and I feared that the time would end. Yes, he says: I woke up from sleep in a state of major ritual impurity, and the weather was cold, and I feared that the time would end. If I wait until the water is heated, is it permissible for me to perform dry ablution with clean earth?
Answer:
No, if you have something to heat the water, you must heat the water, even if the time passes, and you do not perform dry ablution with clean earth, because the water is available. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: “Have you not found water, then perform dry ablution with clean earth?” You have found the water, but it is cold, so heat it, even if the time passes. Some scholars say the opposite, saying: No, do not let the time pass. Rather, perform the prayer in a state of major ritual impurity. However, the first opinion is closer to the meaning of the verse. Yes.
