The Ruling on Performing Wudu for Ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is wudu obligatory for ihram?
Answer:
We have previously discussed this. Wudu is a recommended practice (sunnah). If one performs it and enters ihram while in a state of wudu, that is better. If one enters ihram without wudu, the ihram is valid. Purity is not a condition for ihram; rather, purity is recommended for it.
