Ruling on renewing the ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A person intended to perform wudu for prayer, and his intention with the wudu was renewal, not removing the state of ritual impurity, and he knew that he had become ritually impure. Does performing the wudu remove his state of ritual impurity?
Did you understand? A man is in a state of ritual impurity, then he performs wudu intending renewal. Is his state of ritual impurity removed?Answer: His state of ritual impurity is not removed; because renewal is only considered renewal if one is in a state of purity. As for if one is not in a state of purity, what is he renewing?So we say to this man: If you prayed with this wudu, then repeat your prayer and perform wudu with the intention of removing the state of ritual impurity, then repeat your prayer.As for if he was forgetting the state of ritual impurity, meaning: If he renewed while he was not in a state of ritual impurity, and then after renewing he remembered that he was in a state of ritual impurity, then this suffices for him.
