HOW TO PERFORM GHUSL(RITUAL BATH) IN
ISLAAM

Bismillah Rahmoni Roheem
There are two ways you can do Ritual birth in
Islaam, and both ways are acceptable
~First way(Compulsary)
It is as follows
= 1. Form the intention to purify oneself from
impurity: janaabah (impurity following s*xual
discharge), me**es or nifaas (postpartum
bleeding).
= 2. Wash the entire body with water once,
making sure that the water reaches the roots
of the hair and the places that it cannot
reach easily, such as the armpits and backs
of the knees, as well as rinsing the mouth
and nose, according to the correct scholarly opinion.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have
mercy on him) said in al-Sharh al-
Mumti’ (1/423):
The evidence that this ghusl is valid is the
words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):
“If you are in a state of Janaaba
(i.e. after a s*xual discharge), purify
yourselves (bathe your whole body)” [al-
Maa’idah 5:6].
Allaah did not mention anything apart from
that. If a person washes his entire body once, then it is true to say that he has
purified himself.
~
Second way(complete form)
As for the complete form, it is as follows
= 1. Form the intention in the heart to purify oneself from major impurity: janaabah
(impurity following s*xual discharge), me**es
or nifaas (post partum bleeding).
=
2. Then say Bismillah and wash the hands
three times, then wash any dirt from the
private part.
= 3. Then do wudoo’ as for prayer, a complete
wudoo’.
=
4. Then pour water over the head three
times, and rub the hair so that the water
reaches the roots of the hair.
= 5. Then wash the body, making sure that the water reaches all parts, starting with the
right side of the body and then the left, and
rubbing it with the hands so that the water
reaches the entire body.
The evidence for this mustahabb form of
ghusl is: It was narrated that 'Aa’ishah (may Allaah be
pleased with her) said:
''When the Messenger
of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be
upon him) did ghusl for janaabah, he would
wash is hands and do wudoo’ as for prayer,
then he would wash himself, then he would run his fingers through his hair, then when
he thought that it [the water] had reached
his skin, he would pour water over it [the
head] three times, then he would wash the
rest of his body.''
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (248 and Muslim (316).
And it was narrated that she(may Allaah be
pleased with her) said: When the Messenger
of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be
upon him) did ghusl from janaabah, he
would call for something like a vessel used for milking and take water in his palm. He
started with the right side of his head, then
the left, then he took water in both palm s
and poured it all over his head.
Narrated by al-Bukhaari & Muslim
One of the important rulings concerning this
matter is that ghusl for major impurity takes
the place of wudoo’, so the person who has
done ghusl, whether the complete or the
acceptable form, does not have to repeat
wudoo', unless he does something that invalidates purity whilst doing ghusl.
May Allah bless us with understanding of our deen.... Ameen.
