The Obligation of Order in the Limbs of Ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

A person made a mistake in the order of ablution,For example: wiping his head before washing his hands, and he knew this. Is his prayer valid with this ablution?
His prayer is not valid; because this ablution is not valid, as he began by wiping his head before washing his hands, and Allah (Mighty and Majestic)He says:

O you who have believed, when you rise to [perform] prayer, wash your faces and your forearms to the elbows and wipe over your heads and wash your feet to the ankles

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلَى الصَّلاةِ فَاغْسِلُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوا بِرُؤُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ

[Al-Ma'idah: 6], and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution in the correct order. If a person reverses the order of his ablution, he has done a deed for which there is no command from Allah and His Messenger, and it is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: (Whoever does a deed for which there is no command from us, it is rejected) meaning: it is rejected by him. If the ablution is rejected, it becomes invalid, and if he prays with this ablution, he has prayed with an invalid ablution, so his prayer is not accepted,By the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (Allah does not accept prayer without purification).
