Make niyyah intention to perform wudu , and say "Bismillah" in the name of Allah before starting wudu. Niyyah is the Islamic concept of performing an act for the sake of Allah.
To truly perform wudu , you should center yourself and quiet your thoughts, focusing seriously on what you are doing intending to perform wudu ablution. Niyyah is not said out loud and should be made in the heart; focusing on the phrase "Bismillah" in the name of Allah is a good way to accomplish the necessary centering. Say it out loud or silently to yourself, whichever makes you comfortable. Wash your hands. Use your left hand to wash your right hand.
Do this three times. After that, use your right hand to wash your left hand three times. Make sure to wash in between your fingers and all the way up to your wrists. Take water into your mouth.
Use your right hand to cup water into your mouth three times. Swish it around in your cheeks. Do this thoroughly. Inhale water into your nose. Use your right hand to cup water and inhale it into your nose and blow out three times.
Snort sharply and abruptly without taking too much water into your nose and choking yourself. If you cannot inhale water into your nose, you can wet your fingers and put water on the lower part of your nostrils. Make sure to use safe water to perform this ritual; in some warmer areas of the world, water may contain naegleria fowleri , an amoeba that, if inhaled into the nostrils, can cause a rare but usually fatal type of brain infection.
Even tap water usually in third world and developing countries may be contaminated; to avoid this illness, boil water for one minute three minutes at higher elevations and leave it to cool before rinsing your nose with the water. Wash your face. Wash your face three times by spreading your hands from your right ear to the left, and from the hairline to the chin. Wash your lower arms from wrists to elbows, leaving no part dry. For men who have beards take your wet hands and pass them through your beard as you wash your face.
Start from the fingertips and wash your right arm up to the elbow three times. Make sure that no part is left dry. Afterwards, follow the same process for your left arm and do it three times.
Move your wet hands from the top of the forehead to the back of the head, and then from the back of the head to the forehead. This is done only once. Whether you are bald, have short hair or long hair, the process is the same. This step should be performed with the same water from step 8. Using your wet hands you will use your index fingers to clean the inside of your ears and your thumb to clean the area behind your ears. Begin from your toes on your right foot and wash up to and including your ankle.
Make sure water touches every area of the right foot, especially between the toes and the back of the ankle. Do this three times with the right foot followed by three times with the left foot. As we mentioned earlier in this chapter, a Muslim cannot perform salah until they have performed wudu. This leads into a common question one might ask:. If you decide to put on your socks while you have wudu on, then if a time comes for you to redo your wudu then you do not need to take off your socks.
When it comes time to renew your wudu and reach the step where you need to wash your feet three times step 10 , this time you will do things a little differently:. This is what Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him used to do when he made wudu with his socks on. Although we were referring to socks in this section, the same rules apply for shoes and sandals as long as they cover up to the ankles.
