Q1: How does someone perfrom ghusl?

A: While you intend to seek closeness to almighty Allah, Start by washing the head first and then wash the rest of the body.

Q2: I usually prefer being clean before I pray. Is it possible for me to perform Ghusul of Janaabat instead of wudhu even when I have NOT entered junub before I offer my prayers?

A: It is not considered as Ghusul since the act of Ghusul is a religious practice that almighty Allah ordered it for a set reason, for instance: the Ghusul of Janabet or Ghusl on friday.

Q3: Is it okay for husband and wife to have perform Ghusul together?

A: Yes, it is allowed.

Q4: Can I do wajib and mustahab ghusls, all in one ghusl? or each ghusl must be seperated from the other?

A: Yes, you can join them together in one ghusul.

Q5: Touching of dead person with hand glove does obligate ritual bath - ghusul?

A: No, it does not obligate it.

Q6: If a body is decomposed beyound recognition and we know the dead is of a shia/muslim how can we perform ghusal on the said body?
If the body is badly burnt how can gusul be performed?

A: If ghusul can not be done or it leads to spilling the dead body and damaging it, then it is not mandatory. if the dead body is consistent then ghusul is mandatory.

Q7: If a person performs ghusul of Jum'uah then does that remove the need for performing wudhu?
If a person performs a recommended ghusul does this also remove the need for performing wudhu?

A: Yes, the Friday ghusul compensate the need to perform Ablution - wudu. The same can be said regarding all religiously proven to be recommended ghusul (s). If the evidence to such recommendation was weak and could not prove it then, the believer is rewarded for performing it but it is not sufficient to compensate the performance of ablution.
