Hadith.170 - A group of Jews came to the Messenger of Allah (sw), and the most learned among them asked him several questions. Among those, he asked: 'Why did Allah (swt) command ghusl (ritual bathing) after janabah (ritual impurity due to sexual discharge) but did not command ghusl after defecation and urination?' The Messenger of Allah (sw) replied: 'When Adam ate from the tree, it coursed through his veins, hair, and skin. So when a man engages in intercourse, the fluid (semen) is released from every vein and hair in his body. Therefore, Allah (swt), the Exalted, has commanded his descendants to perform ghusl after janabah until the Day of Resurrection. On the other hand, urine is expelled as the excess from the drink consumed by humans, and feces is the excess from the food consumed. Thus, for those acts, wudu (ablution) is required.' The Jewish scholar said: 'You have spoken the truth, O’ Muhammad.'

171 - وَ كَتَبَ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ فِيمَا كَتَبَ مِنْ جَوَابِ مَسَائِلِهِ: «عِلَّةُ غُسْلِ اَلْجَنَابَةِ اَلنَّظَافَةُ لِتَطْهِيرِ اَلْإِنْسَانِ مِمَّا أَصَابَ مِنْ أَذَاهُ وَ تَطْهِيرِ سَائِرِ جَسَدِهِ لِأَنَّ اَلْجَنَابَةَ خَارِجَةٌ مِنْ كُلِّ جَسَدِهِ فَلِذَلِكَ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ تَطْهِيرُ جَسَدِهِ كُلِّهِ وَ عِلَّةُ اَلتَّخْفِيفِ فِي اَلْبَوْلِ وَ اَلْغَائِطِ أَنَّهُ أَكْثَرُ وَ أَدْوَمُ مِنَ اَلْجَنَابَةِ فَرَضِيَ فِيهِ بِالْوُضُوءِ لِكَثْرَتِهِ وَ مَشَقَّتِهِ وَ مَجِيئِهِ بِغَيْرِ إِرَادَةٍ مِنْهُ وَ لاَ شَهْوَةٍ وَ اَلْجَنَابَةُ لاَ تَكُونُ إِلاَّ بِالاِسْتِلْذَاذِ مِنْهُمْ وَ اَلْإِكْرَاهِ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ.

Hadith.171 - Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as) wrote to Muhammad ibn Sinan in response to his questions: 'The reason for the ghusl (ritual bath) of janabah (ritual impurity from sexual discharge) is for cleanliness, to purify a person from what has affected them and to cleanse their entire body, because janabah involves the whole body. Therefore, it is necessary to purify the entire body. The reason for the lightening (of obligation) in the case of urine and feces is because they occur more frequently and continuously compared to janabah, so it is sufficient to perform wudu (ablution) due to their frequency, difficulty, and the fact that they occur without intentional desire or pleasure. Janabah occurs only through enjoyment or intentional acts involving themselves.'
