Does Ghusl Invalidate Wudu for Prayer?

Ghusl and Wudu: Understanding the Requirements for Prayer

Question: After performing ghusl, can I offer prayer with the same wudu I made at the start of the ghusl, or do I need to perform wudu again?

Answer: If a person performed wudu before ghusl and then completed the ghusl, they can offer prayer with that wudu, provided they did not touch their private parts without a barrier during or after the ghusl. Touching the private parts without a barrier invalidates wudu.

Generally, when people bathe, they tend to wash their entire bodies, including the private parts. If this happens during the ghusl, then the wudu is nullified, and a fresh wudu will be required before offering prayer.
