✅Answer: Please pay attention to the following narrations:

1 عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: الْغُسْلُ يُجْزِي عَنِ الْوُضُوءِ وَ أَيُّ وُضُوءٍ أَطْهَرُ مِنَ الْغُسْلِ

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 139

Translation: Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) said: 'Ghusl suffices for Wudu, and what Wudu is more purifying than Ghusl?'

2 مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْهَمْدَانِيَّ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الثَّالِثِ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الْوُضُوءِ لِلصَّلَاةِ فِي غُسْلِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَكَتَبَ لَا وُضُوءَ لِلصَّلَاةِ فِي غُسْلِ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ لَا غَيْرِهِ

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 141

Translation: Hamdani wrote a letter to Imam Muhammad al-Taqi (peace be upon him) and asked him about performing Wudu for Ghusl al-Jumu'ah; the Imam said: 'There is no Wudu for prayer in Ghusl al-Jumu'ah or any other.'

3 عَنْ عَمَّارٍ السَّابَاطِيِّ قَالَ: سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ إِذَا اغْتَسَلَ مِنْ جَنَابَتِهِ أَوْ يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ أَوْ يَوْمِ عِيدٍ هَلْ عَلَيْهِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ أَوْ بَعْدَهُ فَقَالَ لَا لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ قَبْلُ وَ لَا بَعْدُ قَدْ أَجْزَأَهُ الْغُسْلُ وَ الْمَرْأَةُ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ إِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنْ حَيْضٍ أَوْ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا الْوُضُوءُ لَا قَبْلُ وَ لَا بَعْدُ قَدْ أَجْزَأَهَا الْغُسْلُ

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 141

Translation: Ammar said: Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) was asked about a person who performs Ghusl for Janabah (ritual impurity), or on Friday, or on Eid, whether it is his duty to perform Wudu before or after the Ghusl? He said: 'No, there is no Wudu upon him, neither before nor after the Ghusl, and the Ghusl itself is sufficient for him. Similarly, when a woman performs Ghusl from her menstruation or otherwise, there is no Wudu upon her, neither before nor after it, and the Ghusl is sufficient for her.'

4 عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَغْتَسِلُ لِلْجُمُعَةِ أَوْ غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ أَ يُجْزِيهِ مِنَ الْوُضُوءِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَ أَيُّ وُضُوءٍ أَطْهَرُ مِنَ الْغُسْلِ

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 141

Translation: Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) was asked about a person who performs Ghusl for Friday or otherwise, whether it suffices for Wudu? Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: 'What Wudu is more purifying than Ghusl?!'

5 عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ الْوُضُوءُ بَعْدَ الْغُسْلِ بِدْعَةٌ.

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 140

Translation: Abdullah ibn Sulayman said: I heard Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) saying: 'Performing Wudu after Ghusl is an innovation.'

6 عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: الْوُضُوءُ بَعْدَ الْغُسْلِ بِدْعَةٌ.

📚 Tahdhib, vol. 1, p. 140

Translation: Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) said: 'Performing Wudu after Ghusl is an innovation.'

7 رَوَی سُلَیْمَانُ بْنُ عِیسَی عَنْ أَبِیهِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ علیه السلام کَیْفَ أَزُورُکَ إِذَا لَمْ أَقْدِرْ عَلَی ذَلِکَ قَالَ قَالَ لِی یَا عِیسَی إِذَا لَمْ تَقْدِرْ عَلَی الْمَجِی ءِ فَإِذَا کَانَ یَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاغْتَسِلْ أَوْ تَوَضَّأْ وَ اصْعَدْ إِلَی سَطْحِکَ وَ صَلِّ رَکْعَتَیْنِ وَ تَوَجَّهْ نَحْوِی فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ زَارَنِی فِی حَیَاتِی فَقَدْ زَارَنِی فِی مَمَاتِی وَ مَنْ زَارَنِی فِی مَمَاتِی فَقَدْ زَارَنِی فِی حَیَاتِی

📚 Kamil al-Ziyarat, p. 287

Translation: Isa said: I said to Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): 'When I am unable to visit you, how should I visit you?' The Imam said to me: 'O Isa, when you are not able to come, when it is Friday, perform Ghusl or Wudu, go up to the roof, pray two rak'ahs, and turn towards me, for whoever visits me during my life is as if they have visited me after my death, and whoever visits me after my death is as if they have visited me during my life.'

✅ Numerous other pieces of evidence are also found in Shia narrations confirming that the traditional ritual baths (ghusl) suffice for ablution (wudu).

✅ Of course, in a few other narrations in Shia hadith collections, instructions are given to perform Wudu before Ghusl other than for Janabah. However, due to their conflict with these narrations and their agreement with the general (Sunni) practice, we have refrained from quoting them. Some Shi'a, however, have based their practice on these few narrations.
