I want to know whether gusl haiz and gusl janabat are two different things.

Question

can you please tell me that when a women menses has ened and she wants to take ghusal what is the method for that. And when a women has intercourse and after that she wants to perform ghusal what is the method for that? What are the farz parts and what are the sunnats parts.

Answer

After menses or after intercourse, Ghusl becomes compulsory. There are three%0D%0AFardh in Ghusl, a) To gargle the mouth, b) To rinse the nose so that the%0D%0Awater touches the soft part of the bone in both the nostrils, and c) To make%0D%0Asure that the water reaches every strand of hair on the body, at least once.%0D%0AHowever, with regards to the woman's hair on her head, then there is%0D%0Adetails.%0D%0A%0D%0AIf she has plaited hair and the water comfortably reaches the roots of her%0D%0Ahair, then it is not necessary for her to undo her plaits. If her hair is%0D%0Athick and the water will not be able to reach the roots of her hair, then it%0D%0Ais compulsory for her to undo her plaits so that the water can reach the%0D%0Aroots. In any case, it is not necessary for the water to reach the inbetween%0D%0Ahairs of the plaits.%0D%0A%0D%0AAs for the Sunnats of Ghusl, then one should first wash both the hands upto%0D%0Athe wrists. Thereafter, wash all the impurities including the private parts,%0D%0Athe hair behind the knees, under arms and neck. Thereafter, one should make%0D%0Aa complete and perfect Wudhu and then throw water over the entire body three%0D%0Atimes.%0D%0A%0D%0Aand Allah Ta'ala Knows Best%0D%0A%0D%0AMufti Ebrahim Desai
