If I forget to perform Ghusl after Janabah and later realize it 6 to 7 hours after reciting Salah, what should I do to rectify my prayer and ensure my worship is valid?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If you discovered that your Ghusl was definitely wring after 6 to 7 hours, you must redo the Ghusl in the proper way and perform your obligatory Prayer after the valid Ghusl. Invalid Ghusl means every worship performed after it is invalid until you perform a valid Ghusl.

As a young person, my parents informed me about Ghusl, but I did not realize that not performing it invalidated my fasting and prayers. For years, I prayed and fasted without doing Ghusl due to my lack of understanding. What should I do now?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

You do not need to repeat your fasting days if your ignorance was out of your hands, but you do need to perform your obligatory prayers after performing Ghusl.

Wassalam.
