Define Ghuslu Dukhulu l-Islam and explain how it is performed.
Ghusl is an Arabic term to the full-body ritual purification mandatory before the performance of various rituals and prayers, for any adult Muslim after having ejaculation or completion of the menstrual cycle. However, wudu or just sleep, without either, are acceptable prior to performing ghusl.
