Sunnah Method Of Gargling The Mouth In Ghusl
Question
Must water be gargled to the back of the mouth/beginning of the throat or is it only necessary that water is swirled around in the mouth thoroughly in a Fardh Ghusl?
Answer
It is also Sunnah in Ghusl to gargle in a way that the water reaches the beginning of the
throat even though it is Fardh ghusl.
