The ruling on one who stands at 'Arafah while in a state of major ritual impurity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His final question in this session is: Your Eminence! A man performed the obligatory Hajj, and he says: I experienced a wet dream while in the state of ihram in Mina, on the first night I slept there, the morning of which is the Day of 'Arafah. I remained in my ihram and stood on the Day of 'Arafah without taking a bath, due to the difficulty of the ihram and the tightness of time. What is the ruling in this matter, and is his Hajj valid or not? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good.
Answer: His Hajj is valid, and he erred in not taking a bath. The one who experiences a wet dream owes nothing, because it is not by his choice. However, he erred in delaying the bath. It is obligatory for him to hasten to take a bath so that he prays Fajr and the remaining prayers with the ritual purity prescribed by the Shari'ah. He erred in this and made a great mistake. He must repent to Allah, and he must make up those prayers. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
