The questioner:
A woman asks the Shaykh, may Allah grant you success: What about one who delays the prayer until the end of its time because he is occupied with the matter of water and fetching it, and then prays it in the house?
The Shaykh:
The water is present, but he needs to wait for what is available; the water is there, but he cannot access it except with a rope, a bucket, or the like. So he waits until the water becomes available to him, performs wudu, and prays. Yes, he is occupied with its condition, because he is occupied with its condition. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Doctor.
The Shaykh:
If the time enters and he has no water, he performs tayammum and prays. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
