Surah Al-Maidah: 6. How to perform wud'hu. Allah Almighty says in Quran.
﴿ يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا قُمۡتُمۡ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ فَٱغۡسِلُواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ وَأَيۡدِيَكُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡمَرَافِقِ وَٱمۡسَحُواْ بِرُءُوسِكُمۡ وَأَرۡجُلَڪُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡكَعۡبَيۡنِۚ
O you who believe! When you stand (intend) to offer the Salah (the prayer), then wash your faces and your hands (forearms) up to the elbows, rub (by passing wet hands over) your heads, and (wash) your feet up to the ankles.)
﴿ إِذَا قُمۡتُمۡ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ فَٱغۡسِلُواْ وُجُوهَكُمۡ ﴾
(When you stand (intend) to offer the Salah then wash your faces...) It is also recommended before washing the face that one mentions Allah's Name for the Wudu'. A Hadith that was narrated by several Companions states that the Prophet said,
« لَا وُضْوءَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْه »
(There is no Wudu' for he who does not mention Allah's Name over it.)
How to Perform Wudu`
Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn `Abbas once performed Wudu' and took a handful of water and rinsed his mouth and nose with it. He took another handful of water and joined both hands and washed his face. He took another handful of water and washed his right hand, and another handful and washed his left hand with it. He next wiped his head. Next, he took a handful of water and sprinkled it on his right foot and washed it and took another handful of water and washed his left foot. When he finished, he said, "This is how I saw the Messenger of Allah (performing Wudu').'' Al-Bukhari also recorded it. Allah said,
﴿ وَٱمۡسَحُواْ بِرُءُوسِكُم وَأَيۡدِيَكُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡمَرَافِقِ
(and your hands (forearms) up to (Ila) the elbows and rub your heads.) meaning, including the elbows. Then pass your wet hands over your head from its front to its back and vice versa, beginning from the front and taking them to the back of your head up to the nape of the neck and then bring them to the front again from where you started. Uthman said, `I saw the Prophet performing Wudu' like this. Then Allah says,
﴿ وَأَرۡجُلَڪُمۡ إِلَى ٱلۡكَعۡبَيۡنِۚ ﴾
(and your feet up to ankles.) Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Ibn `Abbas stated that the Ayah refers to washing the feet thoroughly and wiping the toes along in between, with the left hand's little finger.
