question
Are the prayers of someone who would masturbate without making a Janabat Ghusl correct if they were not aware of the ruling?
Concise answer
No, his previous salats will be deemed void and he ought to compensate for those salats which were executed whilst in a stae of janabah. Being purified from states of hadath (state of impurity which is removed, in this case, by means of ghusl) is a prerequisite vis-à-vis the salat’s validity. Hence, assuming one abandons such a prerequisite, his salat will be void – irrespective of whether (i) he was aware or ignorant (of the ruling) and (ii) he carried it out on purpose or out of negligence.
