The scholars said that the full ritual bath extinguishes the heat of desire; is dry ablution with clean earth the same?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : May Allah reward you. Regarding this stated cause, if one eats camel meat and does not find water, does he not perform dry ablution with clean earth?

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : Does he not perform dry ablution with clean earth?

The Shaykh : Yes, no. If we say that it invalidates the ablution, and if the cause is absent in some cases, that does not matter. If he does not find water, it is obligatory for him to perform dry ablution with clean earth. And how do we know? Perhaps the dry ablution with clean earth that a person performs as an act of worship to Allah extinguishes the heat of this.
