is Sheikh Ali Ma'ash السلام عليكم شيخنا Peace and blessings be upon youعة الله And let us continue our discussion on Wudu My question is What is Mustahaab to do in Wudu بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم وسلام الله وعلى محمد وعلى محمدين وعلى الطيبين الطاهرين الآن بأول مستحاب بالنسبة to وضوء وعلى مهمة بأننا نأخذ هذا إلى تفكير وذلك يجب أن نستخدم أمام وضوء وذلك يجب أن تضع أسراف وتبذير ووضوء لإعادة نعمة ومع ذلك يجب أن نعمة نعمة ومع ذلك يجب أن نستخدم أمام وضوء ومع ذلك يسمى مود ويجب أن نستخدمه إلى 750 جميع وذلك يجب أن نقوم بأكثر 750 مليلتر وكذلك يجب أن تضع أسراف ومع ذلك يجب أن نضع أسراف ومع ذلك يجب أن نقوم بأكثر 300 جميع ومع ذلك يسمى صاع يجب أن يكون هناك ثلاثة كيلوكرامسة من موطة حديث يقول من إمام الباقر عليه السلام أنه يقول كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يغتسل بصاعة يجب أن يكون هناك ثلاثة كيلوكرامسة من ماء ويتوضع بموت من ماء يجب أن يفعل موضوع بموت 750 جرامس هذا هو سنة السلامة الله عليه وآله إذا لم نفلوه سنة فنحن نفعل شيئا ويجب أن نتبعه سنة السلامة الله عليه وآله لذا نحاول أن نتبع بحاجة إلى هذا بسرعة الله سبحانه وتعالى أخسان الشيخ ماذا about the whole brushing the mouth and the teeth is this mustahab yes one of the mustahabbat of the wudu is brushing the teeth now the best method used and to be used for brushing the teeth is to use the siwak which is a piece of wood brought from a tree called rak and if not then with one's finger or with anything else even the normal toothbrushes just to make sure that the one who wants to enter the salah and pray with a nice clean teeth and talk to Allah سبحانه وتعالى so are you saying that when performing wudu we have to get a mustak soak stick and start brushing and that's part of the wudu just to be brushing your teeth yes before you start the wudu for example you do the siwak and then you start the wudu afterwards if you forget to do the siwak you do it after the wudu by the end of the wudu so it's very important it just makes your teeth smell better brighter as well those who look for whitening their teeth so that's a good opportunity for them to use this specific siwak and we have a hadith from he says make sure you use the siwak before every wudu or while starting the wudu so it's important these are encouragement for the mu'min to actually to be more in the side of cleanness and tahara and that's part of it it's not just to wash your face and rub your head and feet it's actually also other segments of tahara within the sharia the other mustahab before you actually enter the wudu is to wash both hands so you wash both hands and then you start the wudu onwards other mustahab is to rinse water inside your mouth and breathe water just to sniff inside your nose both nos that could cause a bit of issues for some people because how far does the water need to go up because if it goes up to here it can cause discomfort that's a bit harmful yeah it's just a bit just a little sniff and then you bring out the water again from the nose and just a little bit just to go inside a little bit exactly just to clean up if there's dust or something other particles there's another mustahab with this regard and that is saying بسم الله التسمية of course it's a mustahab to say in any act in any location you get up you stand up you open a book to read something you buy something you want to sell something you say بسم الله it's a mustahab a general a mustahab in everything but it's been encouraged in wudu as well so when you want to start to wash your face بسم الله بسم الله there's a hadith from Imam Al-Sadiq عليه السلام he says وإذا سميت في الوضوء طهور جسدك كله if you say بسم الله in the wudu all your body will be purified so the whole body will be purified with the blessing of saying بسم الله but وإذا لم تسمى لم يطهر من جسدك إلا ممر عليه الماء and if you don't say بسم الله and you do the wudu only the parts which were washed and wiped they only became pure on the whole body so that's the credit you get by saying بسم الله where all the body will be purified another mustahab which you have to go back and refer into the books of du'a the du'a and supplication of wudu when you start when you open the water for example when you wash your face these are all stages that are specific du'a you have to read and they are all mustahab and you have to go back and refer back to the books of ad-ayah to find out these ad-ayah and supplications now the other mustahab within the wudu as well is to actually to wash your face and both arms twice because the first wash is wajib you have to wash at least once the face so you actually you pour the water from the top to bottom you wash it that's once and then again the second is mustahab the second is mustahab are you talking about the second wipe or wash or taking the water again and putting additional water on it it depends on your intention what is your intention is this wipe or the first water you actually poured is it the first time so if you count as a first it becomes the first and the second one mustahab as I mentioned the third one is haram you know I love to do the third washing so it's only the first or the second and to have them both is good it's mustahab and that also applies to both arms the right and the left arm again once is the wajib one the second wash is mustahab the third is should be avoided another mustahab which is mentioned that to read surat al qadr إنه أنزلناه في ليلة القدر I'll just mention a hadith about this a reward about reading this verse inside or while doing the wudu the hadith says إنه أنزلناه في ليلة القدر whoever reads the surat al qadr in his wudu خرج من ذنوبه كيامه ولادته أمه he gets the reward as if somebody was just born where he has no sins so all the sins will be wiped and that also supports the other hadith which says that if somebody goes and he washes 5 times in a river and then at the end of the day he finds himself clean so the process of wudu and surat it's all to purify the ones the internal and the external part of the body of the human being and that's all we need actually we need to be purified all the time because we are fallible and we are exposed to sins to mistakes and so forth so one of the best ways is to do the wudu is to pray and stick with the prayer times and also there is another mustahab within the wudu which the reading surat or ayat al kursi another mustahab in the wudu ayat al kursi in surat al baqara and of course reading these verses will give you a reward the reward itself for the wudu that you do in mustahab and the reward for reading these verses so you get multiple rewards for reading such mustahabbat so it's it's as they say so it's enlightenment or enlightenment now we've discussed the mustahabbat of the wudu is there any mistakes or anything that the viewers might do which is actually makruh that they should stay away from this when doing wudu of course the makruh is another issue to be discussed as well we have things which are disliked in sharia makruh which means that you won't get the reward if you do them I mean there are things sometimes you get less reward it depends on the act less reward or you don't get anything out of it instead it's something disliked disliked act one of the makruhat is to ask somebody to help you to get the wudu water for example to pour the water in your hands and you do the wudu because you're not allowed to actually allow anybody else to do the wudu so you're seeking assistance in your wudu in terms of the basic ones which means to pour the water inside your hand not to actually assist you to do the rubbings and wiping and so forth it's just to get to you the water to rinse the water for example not everything else because it's not allowed I mean you can't just sit down and let your brother or son to wash your face and wash your hands and to wipe your head and feet not allowed actually but just to assist you that is makruh the other makruh is to actually to dry your hands and face after you finish the wudu with a napkin with a towel that's makruh as well so you have to keep the situation of the wudu as it is the wetness and the moisture of the wudu until you get to the prayer mats and you start praying that is what is desirable so it's better to actually once you perform the wudu it's just keep it as it is put on your if you have to put on a jacket or whatever you're right you put it back on but don't actually wipe and dry yourself exactly keep yourself moist then continue with the prayer exactly the other makruh within the wudu is to actually do the and perform the wudu in the place the place of nijasa which is the toilet another makruh in the wudu is to actually use not the pure gold and silver utensils but to use the golden plated and silver plated utensils because I've mentioned in the previous episode that to use a golden plated a utensil which is for example made out of let's say metal or wood and it's been polished and painted by gold we are allowed to use them to eat, to drink and so forth and even for the wudu but it is makruh when it comes to the wudu to use such utensils which are painted or polished by gold or silver it's actually a makruh so you're talking about taps or if there's like a cup or something to pick the water up and pour it exactly if these are made out of gold or silver and plate it this is makruh should stay away from me yes we've had some questions coming and one of the brothers was asking that what the mostahabat of wudu if you are performing wudu you're reciting the ayah of the Quran or you're reciting a surah of the Quran and somebody interrupts asks you a question or something is it okay to stop reciting attend to the brother that's asking or should you complete the ayah and then speak to the brother after as you've just mentioned that it's mustahab mustahab means desirable it's not wajib obligatory so while you're doing the wudu and you're reading let's say surat al qadr or ayat al kursi and somebody interrupts yes they can actually stop reading the rest of the ayah and respond to let's say parents sometimes you have to stop respect the parents call and sometimes that's priority giving to the parents to respond to their call but in overall if you could finish off first this mustahab finish off the ayah which is only 5-10 seconds it won't take that much and then you go back to that person and you answer that person it's better but anyway it depends on the situations how urgent they are I sent them Sheikhna Sheikhna what about those people who are performing wudu but they need to go to the toilet but they're holding it they say oh you know I can hold it let me perform wudu quickly pray then I can relieve myself later on is this acceptable well this act is actually mkruh and is disliked the best thing is to as I've mentioned last time that we need to actually be ready we are meeting the lord of the world and we stand before him with comfort with humbleness with respect so we have to make sure be ready for it as we are ready before we go to college or school or work and so forth we try to actually at least try our best at least for our own health to abide with these rules or their mustahab or mkruh we try to abide with them and may Allah reward us in the hereafter and we gain happiness in this world insha'Allah thank you very much thank you to the viewers that were joining us today I hope you enjoy the discussion and insha'Allah you'll be able to
