Before performing the prayer service, every Muslim really needs to purify himself first with ablution. If there is no water, ablution can be replaced with tayammum. Tayammum is nothing but purification by using dust.
Related to this, there are examples of people who can carry out lihurmatil waqti. For example, people who have just finished surgery are not allowed to interact with water. Another example, while in the forest and unable to perform ablution or tayammum.
Then for other reasons, namely when traveling. If you get off the vehicle with the aim of praying, but are worried that things will be stolen, missing the group, or other impossible things. For example, when traveling by train, plane, ship, bus, and many more.
Other things that are the reason for praying lihurmatil waqti are people who were crucified, tied up, or shackled, in boats, and sick people. However, not just any pain.
In this case, the sick person cannot take water. Even if you can take the water, but you can’t perform ablution.
