Ruling on combining more than one intention in a single ghusl

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person dies while in a state of major ritual impurity, is one ghusl sufficient for him, or are two required?

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. O Allah, send prayers and peace upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family, and his Companions, and whoever follows his guidance. As for what follows:
This person is asking about a deceased person who was in a state of major ritual impurity: should he be washed twice, or is one ghusl sufficient?
The answer is that one ghusl is sufficient, provided the one performing the ghusl intends it for both the major ritual impurity and the death, just as if a woman had menstruation and was also in a state of major ritual impurity, then she performed ghusl after the menstruation with the intention of both the menstruation and the major ritual impurity.
The point is that one ghusl with one intention is sufficient; the one performing the ghusl intends both, intending the major ritual impurity and the death, and that is sufficient.
