(VII) You who believe, do not attempt to pray while you are drunk, until you know what you are saying ; nor after a seminal emission -except when travelling along some road-until you take a full bath. If you are ill or on a journey, or one of you has come from the toilet, or has had contact with any women, and you do not find any water, then pick up some wholesome soil and wipe your faces and your hands with it. God is Pardoning, Forgiving.
