Pearl of Wisdom

'If I was to strike the nose of a believer with my sword to hate me he would never hate me, and if I was to pour down the whole world onto a hypocrite to love me he would never love me, and this is because of what has been destined, as this was passed on through the tongue of the unschooled Prophet (SAWA), saying, Ali, a believer can never hate you and a hypocrite can never love you.?

Question : #668 Category: Sexual Ethics & Morals
Subject: Ghusul
Question: Sallam,

My question is in regards ghusul for the state of junoob. will the ghusul be acceptable if the hair isn't washed,ie do the ghusul but have a shower cap on? Is it obligatory for a female to wash her hair during the ghusul.

Wasallsam and thank you in advance.
Answer: Alaykum Salam.

According to Sayyid Sistani, while doing Ghusl, one should wash the short hair which are taken as a part of the body.
Washing of the long hair is not obligatory. However, if one makes water reach the skin in such a way that those long hair do not become wet, the Ghusl is in order.
However, if it is not possible to make water reach the skin without washing those hair one should wash them so that water may reach the body.
