7 Things You Need to Know About Ablution (Wudu)

I’m about to get real nerdy right now, so if you don’t have the brain energy then go drink some iced coffee and come back later. You can put your foot in the sink, don’t worry no one is watching, haha. Since all Muslims are obligated to be in a state of purity before prayer, we should all know about the preventive and healing wonders of wudu, so I decided to collect some information and share it with all of you. “Wudu’ (Ritual Ablution) protects the body from mycosis (fungal infection) in the toes, skin infections and suppuration’s as well as pus accumulations. It also minimizes possibility of skin cancers, as it removes chemical substances from the skin before they accumulate thereon. That is why skin cancers are rare in Islamic countries.” Subhan’Allah that’s official. In a scientific study carried out by a number of medical professors of a university of one of the Arab Muslim countries it was confirmed that a person who performs Wudu’ (Ritual Ablution) five times a day cleanses his nose from germs, dust and other connected things. It was also confirmed that those who do not perform Wudu’ (Ritual Ablution) are more liable to a number of different kinds of germs, nearly 11 kinds of germs. 7 Benefits of doing Wudu 1.Washing the Hands prevents the transmission of many contagious diseases. 2.Washing the Face recharges such organs as the intestines stomach and bladder, as well as having positive effect on the nervous and reproductive system. 3.Washing the Mouth removes food particles that could cause teeth and gum problems. 4.Washing the Nostrils removes germs trapped inside so they do not reach the respiratory system. 5.Washing the Ears decreases high blood pressure and relieved tooth and throat pain, as well as removing any extra wax that could cause ear infection and general body imbalances. 6.Repeated Washing of the Face invigorated facial akin cells and helps prevent early wrinkles.

Did you know? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also encouraged doing ablution before going to bed. This same ritual is also encouraged by Yoga experts who say that washing important motor and sensory organs such as the hands, arms, eyes, legs, and mouth before sleep using cool water relaxes the body preparing it for a deep sleep. I end with a hadith by our Beloved Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) in which he said ” The key to Paradise is prayer and the key to prayer is cleanliness – Ablution (Tirmidhi, Ahmad)
