\n\tFatwa ID: 03166<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswered by:<\/strong> Maulana Naieem Mohammad\u200b<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tQuestion:<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tShould we face ourselves towards Qibla during wudhu?<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn The Name Of Allah, The Most-Merciful, The Most Kind<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAdherence and practice of our Deen is the only way to win success in this world and in the next. We have been commanded with Fardh acts which we are not allowed to abandon. Other acts such as Sunnat and Nafil acts increase our closeness to Allah and shows our love for him by us practising such deeds which are not compulsory upon us but we do them solely to win his pleasure.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe compulsory pillars of Wudhu are four:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n\t\tWashing of the face<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li>\n
  2. \n\t\tWashing of both forearms\/hands including the elbows<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li>\n
  3. \n\t\tWashing of both feet including the ankles<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li>\n
  4. \n\t\tWiping the wet hands over a quarter of the head[1]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \n\t \n<\/p>\n

    \n\tOne would notice that usually a person would not limit himself or herself to the four Fardh of wudhu but would rather enhance their Wudhu with many Sunnat and Mustahab acts.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

    \n\tFacing the Qibla during Wudhu is from such acts that the Prophet (s.a.w.) practised but did not emphasize<\/u><\/strong>. If a person leaves it out, he will not be sinful or blameworthy and if that person practices it then it will be a source of extra reward. Such an act is categorized as the Adaab (etiquettes) or Mustahab (preferable acts) of Wudhu.[2]<\/u><\/a><\/u><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
