Regarding the Friday bath, is it analogous to renewing the ablution, such that if a person forgets his state of ritual impurity and bathes for Friday, his state of ritual impurity is lifted?

The questioner : Yes. And regarding the Friday prayer. Praying the Friday prayer while forgetting one’s state of ritual impurity.
The Shaykh : By Allah, this requires reflection; it requires reflection. Because the basis of renewal is the lifting of the state of ritual impurity. The state of ritual impurity is lifted; there is no state of ritual impurity at all. If he forgets, this purity does not lift the state of ritual impurity. The Friday bath does not lift the state of ritual impurity.
