However, the more precautionary measure is that these ghusls be performed with the intention of rajÁÞ.
1. The ghusl of Friday (ghusl al-jumu‘ah). Its prescribed time commences after the adhÁn of fajr, and extends until the time of Ûuhr. It is better that it be performed close to the time of Ûuhr. If a person does not perform it by Ûuhr, he should perform it prior to sunset without the intention of adÁ or qaÃÁ. If he fails to perform it on Friday, it is recommended that he performs it qaÃÁ between the morning and sunset of Saturday. One who knows that he will not be able to obtain water on Friday, may perform the ghusl on Thursday day with the intention of rajÁÞ.
It is recommended that the person performing the ghusl of Friday recite the following while performing the ghusl:
َ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِنَ التَّوَّابِينَ وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِنَ الْمُتَطَهِّرِين
Ash hadu an la ilaaha il lal lahu wahdahu la sharika lah wa anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa Rasuluh. Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammadin wa Aali Muhammadiw waj'alni minat tawwaabeena waj'alni minal muta taahhireen.
2. The ghusl on the night of the first, seventeenth, nineteenth, twenty first, twenty third and twenty fourth of Ramadan.
3. The ghusl on the day of ‘Ðd al-fiÔr and ‘Ðd al-aÃÎÁ. Its prescribed time commences from the adhÁn of fajr and ends at sunset, albeit the more precautious practice is that if it is performed between Ûuhr and sunset, it should be done so with the intention of rajÁÞ. In fact, it is better that it be performed prior to the ‘Ðd prayer.
4. The ghusl on the night of ‘Ðd al-fiÔr, and its prescribed time is after sunset. The obligatory precaution is that if he performs it during the remaining part of the night and before the adhÁn of fajr, he should do so with the intention of rajÁÞ.
