Is it obligatory to wash the hair with water and shampoo to remove oil before performing ghusl for major ritual impurity (janabah), or is it sufficient to pour water directly onto it, knowing that the hair may absorb oil?
Oiling the hair on the head does not prevent water from reaching the hair and its roots, because it is not a thick substance, and it is not necessary to wash the hair with shampoo or other products to remove the oil.
