It is narrated by him (the previous chain) from Ali ibn Asbat, from his uncle Ya'qub ibn Salim al-Ahmar, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام: "Is the ghusl (ritual bath) for her like the ghusl of a junub (one in a state of major ritual impurity)?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "Yes, it applies to the menstruating woman."
