The Ruling of Intention in Ablution

Question
If bathing is for the purpose of cleanliness and cooling down, does it take the place of ablution?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Ablution is valid without intention, and thus it is considered ablution as long as the ablution parts are washed, even if the intention to wash is not made. And God knows best.
