Question: 

If a person woke up and found himself in the state of Janaabah with 5 minutes remaining for Fajr time to end, should he perform Tayammum and pray his fajr or carry out Ghusl and make Qadhaa.

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum Wa-Rahmatullāhi Wa-Barakātuh.

In the enquired situation, one should perform Ghusl first and then pray Fajr.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
