Tahiyyat al-Wudu: Understanding the Timing and Requirements

The Importance of Performing Tahiyyat al-Wudu Immediately After Wudu

Question: Is it necessary to have not prayed any other prayer or recited the Quran before performing the Nafl (voluntary) prayer of Wudu?

Answer: Tahiyyat al-Wudu is a prayer that should be performed immediately after making Wudu (ablution). If there is a delay after performing Wudu, the time for this prayer ends. Similarly, if you start reciting the Quran or perform another prayer after making Wudu, then Tahiyyat al-Wudu is no longer applicable. Tahiyyat al-Wudu refers to performing two units of prayer immediately after making Wudu with the intention of offering this specific prayer.
