The answer

The obligatory part of ritual bathing (ghusl) after major ritual impurity (janabah) is to spread pure water over the entire outer surface of the body with the intention [of performing ghusl]. If you cleanse your body with pure water and then use soap or shampoo, or vice-versa, your ghusl is valid. However, performing ghusl solely with water mixed with soap or shampoo is not sufficient according to the majority of scholars, though some scholars have validated it.
