The Ruling on Forgetting the Ghusl from Janabah Before Entering Ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Before donning the ihram, the pilgrim forgot to perform the full ritual bath from major ritual impurity. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
The ihram is valid even if one is in a state of major ritual impurity, and even a menstruating woman may enter ihram. Purity is not a condition for the validity of the ihram contract. However, the person in a state of major ritual impurity must perform the full ritual bath afterwards while in ihram and purify himself from the major ritual impurity while in ihram. There is no harm in this, and the ihram is valid.
