THE INVOCATION
OF WUDHOO
(Excerpted from “Concentration In Prayer”
Book by Dr. Jameel Kermalli)
SIJNY Youth For Excellence
Ramadhan 1424

WUDHOO
What To Recite

At the beginning of Wudhu, you start in the Name of Allah (SWT) and
praise Him for making the water a pure element.

At the time of washing your hands, you request Allah (SWT) to place you
among those who seek His forgiveness and those who are pure.

At the time of rinsing the mouth, you invoke to Allah (SWT) to teach you
the correct way to answer the questions on the Day of Judgment when
you shall meet His Divine Presence.

WUDHOO
What To Recite (cont’d)

At the time of rinsing the nose, you request Allah (SWT) not to deprive you from
the smell of Paradise and to place you among those who smell its fragrance.

At the time of washing the face, you ask Allah (SWT) to brighten your face on that
Day when He will disgrace and darken the faces of a great number of people.

At the time of washing the right forearm, you plead to Allah (SWT) to place the
scroll of your deeds in your right hand and the certificate of permanency in
Paradise in your left hand, and that He should render your accounts leniently.

WUDHOO
What To Recite (cont’d)

At the time of washing the left arm, you ask Allah (SWT) not to place the scroll
of your deeds in your left hand, nor on your back, and He should not hang it
around your neck. You also seek refuge from the fierce Eternal Fire of Hell.

At the time of wiping the head, you request Allah (SWT) to cover you with His
Mercy, Blessings and Pardon.

Finally, at the time of wiping the feet, you ask Allah (SWT) to keep you steadfast
on His Path on that Day when feet shall slip, and make your efforts like of those
that will please Him.

SALAATUL IHTIYAAT
• SALAATUL IHTIYAAT is prayed like two raka'h of
Salaatul Subh with the following exceptions, or like one
raka'h of Salaatul witr or two rak'ah sitting down.
This Salaat must be prayed immediately upon finishing
the Salaat in which the doubt arose, without turning
one's face from the Qibla or in any way breaking the
Salaat. In Salaatul ihtiyat
• 1. The niyyah (intention) must not be uttered with the
tongue.
• 2. There is no second surah after Al-Fatiha and no
qunoot in the second raka'h
• 3. Al-Fatiha must be recited quietly.
SIJNY Youth For Excellence

SIJDATU SSAHW
• Immediately after completing the Salaat that
was affected, make the intention of Sajdatu
Ssahw, go to the Sajdah and recite:

Bismillahi Wa Billahi Assalamu Alayka Ayyuhan Nnabiyyu

Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu.

• Then sit up and go to the sajda again and

repeat the recitation. Then sit us, recite the
Tashahud and Salaam.
