How to make Wudu (also called Wazu or Islamic ablution) is a simple yet vital process every Muslim must complete before Salah (prayer). It is both a spiritual and physical purification that prepares the believer to stand before Allah in worship. This step-by-step guide will show you exactly how to make Wudu according to the Sunnah, in an easy way for kids, beginners, and anyone learning the basics of Islam.
Step 1:
Intention. Since Islam teaches us that intention forms the basis of any action, it is necessary that, before you perform Wudu (Ablution), you make the niyyat or intention for it. This will not be a verbal act – you only have to mentally prepare yourself for an act that will cleanse and purify you.
