Hello thanks for joining me.
Have you ever visited a mosque (Masjid)? In every masjid, you will find something like water storage. So have you thought about why it is there in every mosque?
The Quran says “For God loves those who turn to Him constantly and He loves those who keep themselves pure and clean.”
So in every mosque, there is wudu. Which is used for ritual purification.
Wudu involves washing the hands, mouth, nostrils, arms, head, and feet with water and is an important part of ritual purity in Islam.
Wudu translation in Gujarati: વુઝૂ
Wudu is typically done in preparation for prayer (Salat) and before reading or touching Quran.
There is some basic water requirement for Wudu.
Permitted water types
Spring, sea, or river water
Water of melting snow or hail
Water of a big tank or pond
Well water
Prohibited water types
Unclean or impure water
Water extracted from fruit and trees
Water that has changed its color, taste, and smell and has become thick because something was soaked in it
Small quantity of water in which something unclean has fallen, e.g. urine, blood, stool or wine or some animal had died after falling into it
Water left over after drinking by haraam animals (e.g. pigs or predatory animals)
Used water of wudu or ghusl (according to the opinion of the Hanbali School)
Whenever you visit the Ahmedabad (first heritage city of India) you will find big wudu in the Jama Masjid Courtyard.
Let me give me some information about Jama Masjid :
Jama Masjid (literally Friday Mosque), also known as Jami or Jumma Mosque, is the most splendid mosque of Ahmedabad.
built-in 1424 during the reign of Ahmed Shah I. Lying in the old walled city, the mosque is situated outside the Bhadra Fort area, along the south side of the road extending from Teen Darwaza to Manek Chowk.
