The answer

Prayer must be performed and maintained at its appointed times with the congregation, fulfilling all its conditions and pillars. Purification from both major and minor ritual impurity is a fundamental condition. Whoever prays while in a state of major ritual impurity (), knowing this, has committed a grave sin. Some scholars have gone as far as to deem such a person an apostate (kafir) for mocking Allah.

One must repent, seek forgiveness, feel remorse, and resolve not to repeat it. A single (ritual bath) is sufficient to remove janabah, even if its cause is repeated.

If prayer is missed due to sleep, there is no sin if there was no negligence in setting alarms.
