Juz 6: Reflections (al-Maidah:6)
By obligating wudu before salah, Allah intends to purify His servants, both physically and spiritually, and complete His favour upon them. A blessing for which we must be ever grateful.
Wudu may seem like a simple act of washing specific limbs of the body, but it is actually an act of worship, through which a person attains closeness to Allah, it is half of imaan and holds great virtues.
💦A means of forgiveness:
The Prophet ﷺ said, "None of you who uses water for ablution and rinses his mouth, sniffs up water and blows it, but the sins of his face, and his mouth and his nostrils fall out. When he washes his face, as Allah has commanded him, the sins of his face fall out from the end of his beard with water. Then (when) he washes his forearms up to the elbows, the sins of his arms fall out along with water from his finger-tips. And when he wipes his head, the sins of his head fall out from the points of his hair along with water. And (when) he washes his feet up to the ankles, the sins of his feet fall out from his toes along with water. And if he stands to pray and praises Allah, lauds Him and glorifies Him and shows wholehearted devotion to Allah, his sins would depart leaving him (as innocent) as he was on the day his mother bore him." [Muslim]
The Prophet ﷺ said, "He who performs Wudu' perfectly (i.e., according to Sunnah), his sins will depart from his body, even from under his nails.” [Muslim].
✨Radiance on the Day of Judgment:
The Companions said, “O Messenger of Allah! How will you recognize those of your Ummah who are not born yet?” He said, “Say, if a man has white-footed horses with white foreheads among horses which are pure black, will he not recognize his own horses?” They said; “Certainly, O Messenger of Allah!” He said, “They (my followers) will come with radiant faces and white limbs because of Wudu’; and I will arrive at the Haud (Al-Kauthar) ahead of them.” [Muslim].
🌟Adornment in Jannah:
The Prophet ﷺ said, “The adornment of the believer (in Jannah) will reach the places where the water of Wudu' reaches (his body).” [Muslim]
