(ritual bath) is obligatory after sexual intercourse, or the emission of semen with desire, by any means. Semen for a man is thick, white fluid, and for a woman, it is thin, yellow fluid. Masturbation necessitates Ghusl if semen is emitted. If a woman performs Ghusl after the emission of semen, or performs Ghusl after menstruation, which suffices for Ghusl, then her purification is valid. If she performed Ghusl only for , some scholars are of the view that the Ghusl for Ihram is sufficient for Janabah Ghusl, especially in cases of forgetfulness or ignorance, and therefore, her ' is valid.
