The questioner : If a person in a state of major ritual impurity covers his entire body with water, is that sufficient for him instead of performing the ablution?

The Shaykh : Yes, the ablution is sufficient. Yes, because Allah said:

And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselves

وإن كنتم جنبا فاطهروا

[Al-Ma'idah 5:6]

.
I think we have not finished the benefits?
