Sufficiency of the Friday bath in place of the bath for major ritual impurity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: I took a bath on Friday as usual, and I did not realize that I was in a state of major ritual impurity until after the Friday bath. Is it sufficient?

The Shaykh:
Until after.

The questioner:
The Friday bath, is the Friday bath sufficient in place of the bath for major ritual impurity?

The Shaykh:
As long as you are near the time and you are in the place of bathing, take a bath with the intention of major ritual impurity as a precaution. Otherwise, if it is sufficient, they say that if one intends a recommended bath, it suffices for an obligatory one; this is the opinion of the jurists: if one intends a recommended bath, it suffices for an obligatory one, and the Friday bath is recommended. However, as a precaution, and since you are in the place of bathing, take a bath with the intention of major ritual impurity.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
