What is the ruling on Friday Ghusl(ritual bath) ?

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
What is the ruling on Friday Ghusl(ritual bath) ?

Answer:
Friday Ghusl is confirmed Sunnah(Prophetic tradition) even if a person wasn`t in a state of Janbah(ritual impurity), or physically unclean. However, one who doesn`t make Ghusl on Friday isn`t sinful for the Prophet(PBUH) said: “It is good for a Muslim to make ablution for Friday prayer, but it is better to make Ghusl”{ Narrated by Al-Tirmizi in a sound Hadith}.
