What the Full Bath Requires for It to Suffice
What is required in the full bath for the major impurity to be lifted? Are the intention and the rinsing of the mouth and nose obligatory in it?
The obligations of the full bath are three: rinsing the mouth, rinsing the nose, and covering the whole body with water, including what lies beneath the hair. The intention is a sunnah, not a condition of its validity.
