Having doubts if one's ghusal is complete

· 3 Rabiʻ I 1435 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I gargled once and put water in the nose soaped the bottom half then top half then rinsed is ghusl done? I am confused in my mind I think its
not done at all that I might have missed some place out as I was standing under the shower.

Answer

Do not unnecessarily entertain doubts. If you washed your entire body with gargling your mouth and rinsing your nose, the ghusal is valid.

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