A person in the state of iḥrām[55] for hajj or ʿumrah must not perform immersive ghusl. However, if he forgetfully performs immersive ghusl, his ghusl is valid. [1] An example of instantaneous immersive ghusl is when a person, with the intention of performing ghusl, dives/jumps into a swimming pool and in doing so completely immerses himself in the water; or, when a person who is already partially immersed in the water completely immerses himself with the intention of ghusl.
[2] An example of gradual immersive ghusl is when a person, with the intention of performing ghusl, immerses part of his body into a bathtub of water and then takes that part out of the water; he then immerses another part of his body and takes it out, and so on until all the parts of his body have been immersed. [3] Iḥrām here refers to the state of ritual consecration of pilgrims during hajj andʿumrah.
