Question:
Does the full ritual bath suffice in place of the ablution for performing the ritual prayer?
Answer:
If the full ritual bath is for major ritual impurity and you intend both states of impurity, it suffices.
However, performing the ablution as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did, and then taking the full ritual bath, is the more complete and better option.
As for the recommended full ritual bath, such as for Friday, or for cooling off, or to remove dirt; no, the ablution is necessary, either before or after it.
