Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on one who prays a prayer without ablution intentionally, knowing that it is not permissible?
Answer:
This is considered frivolity, and there is danger in it, for it is punished severely by Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). However, he must repent to Allah, make up this prayer, and not return to such an action. It is not permissible for a person to pray while not in a state of wudu' if he is able to perform wudu'. If he is unable to perform wudu', there is an alternative, which is tayammum. If he is unable to perform wudu' or tayammum, he prays according to his condition, as Allah the Exalted said: "So fear Allah as much as you are able." As for leaving off wudu' while being able to perform it, this is considered negligence regarding the command of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and it carries great danger.
