Is it a religious innovation (bid'ah) to perform wudu' every time one breaks it?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks: Is the one who maintains wudu' every time he breaks it an innovator?

Answer:
If he intends to pray, if he intends to pray, he must perform wudu'. As for when he does not intend to pray, it is recommended (mustahabb) for the Muslim to be in a state of ritual purity (taharah); it is recommended to be in a state of ritual purity, a recommendation, not an obligation. The obligation is when he intends to pray or intends to touch the mushaf, in which case he performs wudu'. As for other times, it is recommended for a person to perform wudu' to be in a state of ritual purity, especially when sleeping; if he intends to sleep, he should sleep in a state of ritual purity, which is a good thing. Yes.
