How To Do Wudu (Ablution) FARD, SUNNAH, MUSTAHABBAT AND MAKRUHAT IN WUDU - The compulsory actions or Fard in Wudu (Ablution) are as follows: 1) Washing the face from hair of the forehead to the lower portion of the chin; and across from one ear to the other 2) Washing both hands and arms up to the elbows 3) Performing the Masa'h (wiping with wet hands, one fourth of one's head) 4) Washing both the feet up to the ankles - There are total 13 Sunnah actions in Ablution. These are: 1) Saying the Intention (Niyyah) 2) Reciting 'Bismillah' 3) Washing the hands, three times, up to the wrists 4) Brushing teeth with a tooth-stick (Miswak) 5) Rinsing the mouth, thrice 6) Sniffing water into the nostrils, thrice, 7) Combing (doing Khilal) the beard with the fingers 8) Passing fingers of both hands, against each other, and also passing them through the toes (Khilal of fingers and toes) 9) Washing, each limb, three times 10) Performing the Masa'h once over the whole head 11) Performing the Masa'h of the two ear 12) Performing Ablution (Wudu) in proper order 13) Washing each part, one after the other, without pause, to ensure that no part dries up before the next step. - In addition to Fard and Sunnah there are some other desirable actions (Mustahabbat) in Wudu. These are: 1) To begin Ablution (Wudu) from the right side. Some scholars regard this among the Masnun (Sunnah) acts. This is quite likely. 2) Performing 'Masa'h' of the nape. 3) Performing Ablution all by himself, without taking other's help. 4) Facing Qiblah. 5) Performing Ablution while sitting at a clean and elevated place. - Some things that are not considered as desirable in Wudu are known as Makruhat. These are: 1) Performing Ablution at a dirty place 2) Blowing one's nose with the right hand 3) Talking worldly affairs while performing Ablution 4) Performing Ablution in a manner contrary to Sunnah Nullification of the Ablution The ablution becomes nullified by any of the following 1. Natural discharges, i.e., urine, stools, gas, etc... 2. The flow of blood or pus and the like from any part of the body; 3. Vomiting; 4. Falling asleep; 5. Losing one's reason by taking drugs or any intoxicating stuff. After the occurrence of any of these things the ablution must be renewed for prayer. Also, after natural discharges, water should be applied because the use of toilet tissues may not be sufficient for the purpose of purity and worship.
