Is ritual purity required for the takbir?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : He says the takbir facing the qiblah. If he becomes ritually impure before the takbir, he does not say it, because ritual impurity breaks the prayer. If he forgets the takbir, he faces the qiblah.

Answer : If a person passes wind that tightens up on him when he has finished the taslim, he releases it, and then he says the takbir, because it is not required that the takbir be said while in a state of ritual purity. Yes, if the time has passed and the takbir has become separated from the prayer, then we say: the recommended practice has missed its time. Yes.
