What is the ruling on the prayer of a woman whose ablution was invalidated due to vaginal discharge, given the impossibility of renewing her ablution at school for several reasons, including the inability to roll up her dress sleeves and an aversion to entering the restrooms, which leaves her in a dilemma between delaying the prayer or performing it without ritual purity?

It is permissible to delay the Dhuhr prayer until returning home, as long as it is prayed before its time expires, because prayer is an obligation with an extended timeframe. However, it is not permissible to perform the prayer at school except with Wudu, because prayer is not accepted without purification.
