Q: A person, whilst on safr urgently needed to answer the call of nature. Unfortunately there was no water available for at least 30km’s. Hence, he used juice (drink o pop – mix a drink) for istinjaa. Thereafter he made tayammum and offered his fajr salaah. Was the salaah valid or should it be repeated?
A: It is valid.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
