The Manner of Making a proper Wudhu ALLAHUMM AA?ATINI KITAABI BIYAMINI WA HASIBNI HISAABAY?YASIRA. If one is wearing a ring, ensure that the ring is moved for water to reach beneath it. Then wash the left arm including the elbow as you recite: (The Du?aa is on pg.63 Fataawaa Rahimiyyah? in Vol.2) When this is done, keep the little finger, the ring finger and the middle finger of each hand together, with the index finger apart. Then wet the fingers and pass these three fingers over the head starting from the forehead and then stopping at the nape. Thereafter, pass the wet palms of each hand over the sides of the head above the ear, starting from the nape where they have stopped and ending at the front of the head. In this way, Masah is made of the entire head. Then recite the du'aa: (The Du?aa is on pg. 63 Fataawaa Rahimiyyah in Vol.2) Then place the index fingers into the ears and pass and though the folds of the outer ear as well. The insides of the thumbs will then be passed over the backs of the ears, so that Masah of the ears is completed. The following du'aa should then be recited: (The Du?aa is on pg. 63 Fataawaa Rahimiyyah in Vol.2) Immediately thereafter, pass the backs of the hands over the nape as you recite: Then wash the feet up to the ankles and pass the little finger of the left hand between the toes, starting from the little toe of the right foot and ending with the little toe of the left foot. When washing the right foot, recite: (The Du?aa is on pg. 64 in Fataawaa Rahimiyyah Vol.2) When washing the left foot recite: (The Du?aa is on pg. 64 in Fataawaa Rahimiyyah Vol.2) The du'aas cited in Shaami, Aalamgeeri and Tahtaawi are slightly different and a person may recite whichever of them his knows. After completing the wudhu, recite the Kalimah Shahaadah, which is: ASH?HADU ALLA ILAAHA ILLALAAHU WAH DAHU LAA?SHARIKLAHU WA?ASH HADU ANNA MUHAMMADAN ABDUHU WA?RASOOLUH. A Hadith states that when a person recites the Kalimah Shahaadah after performing wudhu, all the eight doors of Jannah are flung open for him and he may enter from whichever door he pleases. Then recite the du'aa: (The Du?aa is on pg. 64 Fataawaa Rahimiyyah in Vol.2) A Hadith of Nasa'ee states that the person who recites this du'aa will never suffer from insanity. Thereafter, recite Surah Qadr and perform two Rakaahs Tahiyyatul Wudhu salaah
