When Does Ghusl of Janābah Become Obligatory
Issue No.373- Ghusl of janābah is recommended, if it is done for coming out of the state of janābah and becoming ṭāhir but it becomes obligatory for obligatory prayers and similar acts. However, it is not obligatory for the prayer for the dead individual, sajdah for Shukr (prostration for thanksgiving) and obligatory sajdah of the holy Qur'an (when one hears a person reciting the four verses) and one may perform these acts even in this state, even though it is better to perform ghusl for them.
