What is the ruling of Islamic law concerning a man who dislikes ghusl (ritual bathing) and approaches his wife while in a state of janabah (major ritual impurity), and what should the wife do with him?

The husband's failure to perform ghusl (ritual bath) after janabah (state of ritual impurity) falls into one of two categories:

1. He abandons the obligatory prayer and therefore does not perform ghusl for it. This is a grave sin, and he must pray. If he prays, he should perform ghusl for janabah because ghusl is a condition for the validity of prayer.

2. He becomes junub (ritually impure) and then has intercourse with his wife again without performing ghusl between the two acts of intercourse. It is mustahabb (recommended) to perform ghusl or wudu' (ablution) between them, due to the action of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and because that is purer, better, and cleaner. The correct view is that it is recommended, not obligatory.
