                             Wudu (Ablution)

How to define wudu (ablution)?

To perform Wadu or ablutions is one of the pre-requisites of every prayer. The Quran says:


"O' Believers, when you get up for the prayer, wash up your faces and your hands up to the elbows and wipe your hands(with wet hands) and wash your feet up to the ankles."(5:6).


The Holy Prophet has said:

"On the Day of Judgment, I shall be able to support my people by their faces and hands and feet, which will be shining on account of Wudu."


In Wudu, one must wash and clean to one's full satisfaction all the limbs and parts of the body involved with pure water, in the prescribed manner.

Duties of Wadu

1 – To wash the face once... 

2 – To clean the hands up the elbows, including the elbows...
