HOW TO I PERFORM WUDHU?

The prophet Muhammad (P.b.u.h) said that a person’s prayer

(Salah) is not accepted if he is not pure. So, before praying a

Muslim must purify himself.

He should wash off the dirt, if any, from his body. A Muslim

should make sure that his clothes are clean. Wudhu should

be performed with pure water. The way to perform Wudhu:

1) Make the intention of purifying yourself for Salah.

2) Start in the name of Allah by saying Bismillah – In the

name of Allah.

3) Wash the right hand and the left hand and the left hand

three times. You should wash up to the wrists and between

the fingers.

4) Rinse out the moth three times.

5) Sniff water into the nose and give it a gentle blow, three

times.

6) Wash the face three times, from the hairline to the

bottom of the chain and from ear to ear.

7) Wash the right forearm up to the elbow including the hand

three times.

8) Wet your hands and wipe the head once from the hairline

to the neck and back again to the front.

9) With your hands, wipe the inside of the ears with the index

finger and the outside of the ears with your thumb once.

10) Wash the feet starting with the right foot, from the toes to

the heels and ankles. Do this three time. Remember to rub

between the toes.

11) Now recite ash-shahaadah. “Ash-hadu allaa ilaahaa

illallaahu wa ash-hadu anna muhammadan ‘abduhu

warasooluh” I bear witness that there is no God worthy of

Worship except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is his

servant and messenger.
