The Ruling on Bathing Instead of Ghusl
Faṭimah: If a woman was unaware that she needed to perform ghusl after menstruation and instead took a regular bath after becoming pure, does this count as ghusl?
Mother: If she bathed with the intention of obeying Allah's command, but out of inculpable ignorance[1] (innocence) did not intend to perform ghusl or follow the correct sequence, her ghusl is valid, even if she did not step out from under the shower after washing the head and neck.

[1] A person who is innocent in his ignorance is someone who did not neglect his duty to learn the religious ruling.
