يَٓا اَيُّهَا الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا لَا تَقْرَبُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَاَنْتُمْ سُكَارٰى حَتّٰى تَعْلَمُوا مَا تَقُولُونَ وَلَا جُنُبًا اِلَّا عَابِر۪ي سَب۪يلٍ حَتّٰى تَغْتَسِلُواۜ وَاِنْ كُنْتُمْ مَرْضٰٓى اَوْ عَلٰى سَفَرٍ اَوْ جَٓاءَ اَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ مِنَ الْغَٓائِطِ اَوْ لٰمَسْتُمُ النِّسَٓاءَ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَٓاءً فَتَيَمَّمُوا صَع۪يدًا طَيِّبًا فَامْسَحُوا بِوُجُوهِكُمْ وَاَيْد۪يكُمْۜ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَفُوًّا غَفُورًا ٤٣

English Translation
43O you who believe, do not approach the prayer while you are intoxicated, until you know what you are saying; nor while in a state of major ritual impurity (junub)—except when traveling—until you have bathed. If you are ill or on a journey, or have come from the toilet, or have had relations with your spouses, and cannot find water, then perform tayammum with a clean place/surface: wipe your faces and your hands with it. Surely Allah is pardoning and forgiving.
