Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (and your hands to the elbows)]

His saying, Mighty and Majestic: [Surat al-Ma'idah: 6] (the elbows) are the joints between the upper arm and the forearm. They are called elbows because a person finds comfort in them when leaning on them while sitting or lying down; they are a point of support for the person. The elbows are included in the full ritual bath because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to wash them. We must know that the hand is washed from the tips of the fingers to the elbow;Because Allah said: [Surat al-Ma'idah: 6] so it is obligatory to wash from the tips of the fingers to the elbows. Many people may wash only the forearm without washing the palm, either out of ignorance or because they assume that washing the palm before washing the face is sufficient. However, we must be careful, because it is necessary to wash the entire hand that Allah commanded to be washed, from the tips of the fingers to the elbows.
