How to make wudu, step by step
Before praying, you need to be in a state of wudu. Wudu is the purification made before salah.
Before starting, use the restroom if needed. Remove anything that blocks water from reaching the skin, such as thick paint, nail polish, glue, or similar barriers.
Then go to the sink and begin wudu calmly. Do not rush; make sure water reaches the places that must be washed.
2Wash the hands
Wash the right and left hands up to the wrists three times.
Wash between the fingers carefully.
3Rinse the mouth
Take water into your mouth with the right hand.
Rinse and spit it out.
Do this three times.
4Clean the nose

9Wipe the ears and neck
Wipe the inside and outside of the ears with wet fingers.
In some Hanafi circles, the neck is lightly wiped with the back of the hand; verify madhhab and local practice.

How to use the results and tools responsibly
This section explains what the calculation tools use, why results may differ, and which checks matter before relying on them for important decisions.
Calculation limits
Qibla direction is calculated mathematically from latitude and longitude. Prayer times are technical estimates based on date, timezone, coordinates and the selected method. Phone compasses can be affected by metal, magnets, nearby electronics and poor calibration.
Local verification
For congregational prayer, fasting announcements, travel or public schedules, follow a trusted local mosque, competent religious authority or established local timetable. Reliable sources may differ by several minutes because of twilight angles, Asr convention, high-latitude rules or safety margins.
Translation and content quality
English and Turkish are the primary reviewed publishing languages. Other language versions remain available for users, while unreviewed or repetitive pages are kept noindex and do not load advertising until they have sufficient distinct value.
