Allah the Exalted said: (And if you are in a state of janabaht (major impurity), then purify yourselves.) (The Noble Qu’ran 5:6)
- Intention (Niyyah) for purification from the major state of impurity (in the heart and not uttered)
- Say, Bismillah
- Wash the hands
- Wash the private part using the left hand
- make complete ablution (wudu’)
- Pour water over the head; water must reach the scalp. Women don’t need to undo their braids.
- Finally, wash the entire body; start with the right side first
