Question:
The questioner, Ayn Maim, says: I would like to know, in a simple and easy way, the method of ghusl for janabah, as I have heard of several methods. I ask you, Honorable Shaykh, to clarify this, and whether ghusl under a shower is permissible or not.
Answer:
The description of ghusl for janabah, as reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), is that he
his body three times, covering his entire body with it so that nothing remains on his body without water running over it. The obligatory amount is once, and the recommended amount is three times, whether this is done using a shower or otherwise. The important thing is that he pours water over his head and his body and covers it, either by taking water and pouring it over his body, or by turning on the shower and standing under it.
