If a man has two full ritual baths (ghusl) that coincide, such as one for major ritual impurity (janabah) and one for Friday prayer, is one full ritual bath sufficient, or is it necessary to perform two full ritual baths?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A final question, may Allah bless you, O Shaykh. A final question, may Allah reward you with good. If a man has two full ritual baths (ghusl) that coincide, such as one for major ritual impurity (janabah) and one for Friday prayer, is one full ritual bath sufficient, or is it necessary to perform two full ritual baths?
The Shaykh : It is necessary to perform two full ritual baths.
The questioner : For those who permit it, O our Shaykh, there is a doubt, meaning there appears to be some strength in it. It is said that if the matter were as you state, then the man who has intercourse with his wife would have to perform two full ritual baths. But since there are hadiths stating that if a man inserts his penis and does not ejaculate, he must perform a full ritual bath, and if he ejaculates, he must perform a full ritual bath, then the two obligations coincide. So we say he must perform two full ritual baths.
The Shaykh : May Allah guide them. There is no analogical reasoning (qiyas) where there is an explicit text.
The questioner : No analogical reasoning (qiyas).
The Shaykh : Where there is an explicit text.
The questioner : Yes, there is an explicit text from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he used to combine... May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The student : May Allah bless you.
Another student : Our Shaykh, a brother of ours in Egypt named 'Abd al-Mu'min Muta' loves you very much in Allah and sends you his greetings.
The Shaykh : And to you, and upon him be peace.
The student : And he asks you for your supplication, O our Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May we be successful, if Allah wills.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
The Shaykh : For all good.
The student : May Allah bless you. Under Allah's care, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Peace be upon you.
The student : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
The Shaykh : It is necessary to perform two full ritual baths.
