قال أبي رضي الله عنه في رسالته إلي: إذا أردت الغسل من الجنابة فاجتهد أن تبول ليخرج ما بقي في إحليلك من المني، ثم اغسل يديك ثلاثا من قبل أن تدخلهما الاناء وإن لم يكن بهما قذر، فإن أدخلتهما الاناء وبهما قذر فأهرق ذلك الماء، وإن لم يكن بهما قذر فليس به بأس، وإن كان أصاب جسدك مني فاغسله عن بدنك، ثم استنج واغسل وأنق فرجك ثم ضع على رأسك ثلاث أكف من ماء وميز الشعر بأناملك حتى يبلغ الماء إلى أصل الشعر كله. وتناول الاناء بيدك وصبه على رأسك وبدنك مرتين، وامرر يدك على بدنك كله، وخلل أذنيك بإصبعيك، وكلما أصابه الماء فقد طهر فانظر أن لا تبقى شعرة من رأسك ولحيتك إلا [و] يدخل الماء تحتها، ومن ترك شعرة من الجنابة لم يغسلها متعمدا فهو في النار. ومن ترك البول على أثر الجنابة أو شك أن يتردد بقية الماء في بدنه فيورثه الداء الذي لا دواء له. ومن أحب أن يتمضمض ويستنشق في غسل الجنابة فليفل وليس ذلك بواجب لان الغسل على ما ظهر لا على ما بطن، غير أن الرجل إذا أراد أن يأكل أو يشرب قبل الغسل لم يجز له إلا أن يغسل يديه ويتمضمض ويستنشق فإنه إن أكل أو شرب قبل أن يفعل ذلك خيف عليه [من] البرص.

"My father, may Allah (swt) be pleased with him, wrote to me in his letter: 'When you intend to perform ghusl for janabah (ritual impurity due to sexual discharge), strive to urinate first so that any remaining semen in your urethra is expelled. Then wash your hands three times before placing them in the water container, even if there is no impurity on them. If you place them in the container while they are impure, then discard the water. If there is no impurity, there is no harm. If any semen has touched your body, wash it off. Then perform istinja (cleansing of the private parts) and thoroughly wash your genitals. Pour three handfuls of water over your head and separate the hair with your fingers so that the water reaches the roots of all your hair. Take the container in your hand and pour water over your head and body twice and rub your body thoroughly. Insert your fingers into your ears and ensure water reaches all parts. Every part that the water touches becomes purified, so ensure that no hair on your head or beard remains without water reaching beneath it. If someone deliberately leaves any hair unwashed during ghusl for janabah, they will be in the Fire. If someone fails to urinate after janabah or suspects that residual moisture may remain within them, it may lead to an incurable disease. If one wishes to rinse the mouth and nose during ghusl for janabah, it is permissible but not obligatory, as ghusl pertains to what is external, not internal. However, if a person wants to eat or drink before performing ghusl, they must wash their hands, rinse their mouth, and clean their nose first. If they eat or drink before doing so, it is feared they may develop leprosy.'”

185 - وَ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: «كَيْفَ لاَ يُوجِبُ اَلْغُسْلَ وَ اَلْحَدُّ يَجِبُ فِيهِ » وَقَالَ «يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ اَلْمَهْرُ وَ اَلْغُسْلُ.

Hadith.185 - Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) would say: 'How can ghusl (ritual bathing) not be obligatory when the Hadd (prescribed punishment) is applicable in such a case (if it is adultery)?". Imam (as) said: 'The dowry and ghusl become obligatory upon him’

186 - وَ سُئِلَ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُصِيبُ اَلْمَرْأَةَ فِيمَا دُونَ اَلْفَرْجِ أَ عَلَيْهَا غُسْلٌ إِنْ هُوَ أَنْزَلَ وَ لَمْ تُنْزِلْ هِيَ قَالَ «لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا غُسْلٌ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ هُوَ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غُسْلٌ.

191 - قَالَ اَلْحَلَبِيُّ وَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ: «إِذَا اِغْتَمَسَ اَلْجُنُبُ فِي اَلْمَاءِ اِغْتِمَاسَةً وَاحِدَةً أَجْزَأَهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ غُسْلِهِ. ومن أجنب في يوم أو في ليلة مرارا أجزأه غسل واحد إلا أن يكون يجنب بعد الغسل أو يحتلم، فإن احتلم فلا يجامع حتى يغتسل من الاحتلام. ولا بأس بأن يقرأ الجنب القرآن كله ما خلا العزائم التي يسجد فيها وهي سجدة لقمان وحم السجدة، والنجم، وسورة اقرأ باسم ربك. ومن كان جنبا أو على غير وضوء فلا يمس القرآن، وجائز له أن يمس الورق أو يقلب له الورق غيره ويقرأ هو ويذكر الله عز وجل. ولا يجوز للحائض والجنب أن يدخلا المسجد إلا مجتازين ولهما أن يأخذا منه وليس لهما أن يضعا فيه شيئا لان ما فيه لا يقدران على أخذه من غيره وهما قادران على وضع ما معهما في غيره. وإذا أرادت المرأة أن تغتسل من الجنابة فأصابها حيض فلتترك الغسل إلى أن تطهر، فإذا طهرت اغتسلت غسلا واحدا للجنابة والحيض. ولا بأس بأن يختضب الجنب ويجنب وهو مختضب، ويحتجم، ويذكر الله تعالى، ويتنور، ويذبح، ويلبس الخاتم، وينام في المسجد ويمر فيه ويجنب أول الليل وينام إلى آخره، ومن أجنب في أرض ولم يجد الماء إلا ماء جامدا ولا يخلص إلى الصعيد فليصل بالمسح ، ثم لا يعد إلى الأرض التي يوبق فيها دينه. وقال أبي رحمه الله في رسالته إلي: لا بأس بتبعيض الغسل، تغسل يديك وفرجك ورأسك وتؤخر غسل جسدك إلى وقت الصلاة، ثم تغسل جسدك إذا أردت ذلك، فإن أحدثت حدثنا من بول أو غائط أو ريح بعد ما غسلت رأسك من قبل أن تغسل جسدك فأعد الغسل من أوله فإذا بدأت بغسل جسدك قبل الرأس فأعد الغسل على جسدك بعد غسل رأسك.

Hadith.191 - Ubaydullah ibn Ali Al-Halabi said: "I was told by someone who heard Him say: 'If a person in a state of janabah (ritual impurity due to sexual discharge) immerses themselves in water all at once, that suffices for their ghusl (ritual bath).'. [AL SADUQ] If a person becomes junub (ritually impure) multiple times during a day or night, one ghusl is sufficient unless they become junub again after performing ghusl or experience a wet dream. If they have a wet dream, they should not engage in intercourse until they perform ghusl for the wet dream. There is no issue for a person in a state of janabah to recite the entire Quran, except for the verses of prostration, which are found in Surah Luqman, Surah Ha-Mim As-Sajdah (Surah Fussilat), Surah An-Najm, and Surah Al-‘Alaq A person who is junub or without wudu should not touch the Quran, but it is permissible for them to touch the paper (not the Quranic text) or to have someone else turn its pages, and they may read and mention the names of Allah (swt). A menstruating woman and a person in a state of janabah should not enter the mosque except when passing through it, and they may take something from it, but they should not leave anything in it, as they are able to leave it in other places. If a woman wishes to perform ghusl from janabah but begins menstruating, She should delay the ghusl until her menstruation ends. Then, She should perform one ghusl that covers both janabah and menstruation. There is no issue for a person in a state of janabah to dye their hair, become junub while their hair is dyed, undergo cupping, remember Allah (swt), use depilatory agents, slaughter animals, wear a ring, sleep in a mosque, pass through it, or become junub at the beginning of the night and sleep until the end of it. If a person becomes junub in a place where there is only frozen water and they cannot reach clean soil, they should perform tayammum (dry ablution) and pray, then avoid returning to a place where their faith may be jeopardized. My father, may Allah (swt) have mercy on him, wrote to me: 'There is no issue with dividing the ghusl. Wash your hands, private parts, and head, and delay washing the rest of your body until the time of prayer, at which point you wash your body. However, if you have any hadath (ritual impurity, such as urination or defecation) after washing your head but before washing your body, repeat the ghusl from the beginning. If you begin washing your body before your head, repeat the ghusl for your body after washing your head.'
