Need for a Ghusl on a Flight

QUESTION:

A person is on a flight. He falls asleep and wakes up realising he needs a Fard ghusl. It is the time of a salat, and there is still a long time before landing. Another salat time will commence and end before he lands. What does he do?

 

ANSWER:

In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,

 

If he cannot do ghusl, he should do tayammum and then pray ṣalāh.

 

And Allah, the Almighty, knows best,
