    Ghusl (Arabic: غسل‎‎) refers to the ritual cleansing of the entire body. It must be performed after sexual activity, menstruation and childbirth. It is also performed on the body of a dead person in preparation for burial. Performing Ghusl is Mustahabb on certain occasions such as before Jummah and Eid prayers and before entering into the state of Ihram.
