Washing a limb less than 3 times in ghusal

· 28 Rabiʻ I 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I just want to know that during ghusal if we are washing our body parts like, if first we wash our first arm 3 times and then forgetfully we wash our 2nd arm 2 times so is it okay ? Or we have to balance the order?

Answer

The ghusal will be valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
