Abandoning prayer is one of the gravest sins; it is the pillar of the religion. A Muslim must perform the prayer as long as their mind is sound. A Muslim performs what they are able to of the conditions and pillars of prayer, and what they are unable to perform is waived. If one is in a state of major ritual impurity (janābah) and is unable to perform , they wash what they can and wipe over what they are unable to wash. If they are unable to wipe, they perform . The same applies to wudu': they perform wudu' as much as they are able, wipe over what they are unable to wash, or else perform tayammum for what they are unable to perform.
