Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the second question of this questioner, he asks: Is it permissible for a person to take a full ritual bath with ordinary water without using detergents like shampoo, for example, if he is in a state of major ritual impurity?
The Shaykh : Yes. Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:6] And that is with water, so water is sufficient for the full ritual bath from major ritual impurity. However, if it is estimated that there is oil on his body, or if the amount of oil on his body is large, then he must run his hand over his body until he is certain that the water has reached all of his body, because the full ritual bath for major ritual impurity must cover the entire body, and this includes rinsing the mouth and sniffing water into the nose. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh : Yes. Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) said:
O you who have believed, when you rise to [perform] prayer, wash your faces and your forearms to the elbows and wipe over your heads and wash your feet to the ankles. And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselves
يا أَيُّهَا الَّذينَ ءامَنوا إِذا قُمتُم إِلَى الصَّلاةِ فَاغسِلوا وُجوهَكُم وَأَيدِيَكُم إِلَى المَرافِقِ وَامسَحوا بِرُءوسِكُم وَأَرجُلَكُم إِلَى الكَعبَينِ وَإِن كُنتُم جُنُبًا فَاطَّهَّرواThe questioner : May Allah reward you.
