3. Make the intention for Ghusl, “I am intending to purify myself”.
Our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) has said, “Every action is
based on Intention, and everyone shall have what he intended”.
[Bukhari]
Note: Intention doesn’t need to be uttered verbally or loudly, it is an
action of the heart.
4. Wash your hands up to the wrists.
Narrated 'Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her): Whenever the
Prophet (peace be upon him) took a bath after Janaba he started by
washing his hands and then performed ablution like that for the
prayer. After that he would put his fingers in water and move the roots
of his hair with them, and then pour three handfuls of water over his
head and then pour water all over his body. [Bukhari]
5. Wash all the impurities from your private parts.
Maymunah (RA) related that the Prophet (peace be upon him) washed
his private parts while having a bath. [Bukhari]
6. Wudhu should now be performed.
Narrated Maimuna (May Allah be pleased with her): (the wife of the
Prophet) Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) performed ablution like
that for the prayer but did not wash his feet. He washed off the
discharge from his private parts and then poured water over his body.
He withdrew his feet from that place (the place where he took the
bath) and then washed them. And that was his way of taking the bath
of Janaba. [Bukhari]
Note: If the surface where the person is standing is clean then feet can
be washed at the same time.
7. You should now rub water through your hair three times, letting the
water penetrate down to the roots of the hair.
Note: It is obligatory for women to have the water reach the roots of
the hair according to all four Imams of Fiqh either by untying the plaits
of the hair or loosening them (if the water reaches the roots).
8. You should now pour water over the head and the rest of the body
three times starting from the right side.
Narrated 'Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her): Whenever the
Prophet (peace be upon him) took a bath after Janaba he started by
washing his hands and then performed ablution like that for the
prayer. After that he would put his fingers in water and move the roots
of his hair with them, and then pour three handfuls of water over his
head and then pour water all over his body. [Bukhari]
9. No area of the body (even equal to a hair) should be left dry during
Ghusl.
Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib (May Allah be pleased with him): The
Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) said: If anyone who is sexual
defiled leaves a spot equal to the breadth of a hair without washing,
such and such an amount of Hell-fire will have to be suffered for it. Ali
said: On that account I treated my head (hair) as an enemy, meaning I
cut my hair. He used to cut the hair (of his head). May Allah be
pleased with him.
[Abu Dawud]
10. It is not necessary to do Wudhu afer Ghusl.
Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin (May Allah be pleased with her): The
Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him)took a bath and offered two
rak'ahs of prayer and said the dawn prayer. I do not think he
performed ablution afresh after taking a bath.. [Abu Dawud]
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
“Cleanliness is half the faith (Emaan).” [Sahih Muslim]
