Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may God protect him):
This ghusl is mentioned by the jurists (may God be pleased with them) among the recommended ghusls, but its recommendation has not been established with us. However, it is permissible to perform it out of hope, but it does not replace wudu.

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei (may God protect him):
It does not suffice as a replacement for wudu.
