What is the ruling regarding the prayers of someone who prayed while in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah) and did not realize it until after several prescribed prayers (furood), and what must they do?

The prayers that were performed without from (ritual impurity) must be redone, because ghusl is a condition for the validity of prayer, due to the Almighty’s saying: "And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselves." And knowing about the obligation of ghusl after the time has passed does not affect the obligation to repeat (the prayers).
