How to make wudu?
After mentioning the fards, sunnahs and adabs of wudu, now let us explain how to make wudu in compliance with its order and rules:
* After intending to make wudu, one utters audhu – basmala and washes his hands up to his wrists. If there is a ring on one of the fingers, it is moved so that water will penetrate under it.
* The right hand is filled with water and the mouth is rinsed out with this water. If the teeth have not been cleaned with siwak or brush, the teeth can be rubbed with the fingers while rinsing the mouth.
* Then, some water is put in the right hand and inhaled into the nose; then, the nose is blown with the left hand without disturbing the people around.
* The two hands are filled with water and the whole face is washed three times.
* The right arm and then the left arm are washed three times including the elbows.
