یَـأَیُّهَا الَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا إِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلَى الصَّلَوةِ فَاغْسِلُوا وُجُوهَکُمْ وَأَیْدِیَکُمْ إِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوا بِرُءُوسِکُمْ وَأَرْجُلَکُمْ إِلَى الْکَعْبَیْنِ وَإِن کُنتُمْ جُنُباً فَاطَّهَّرُوا وَإِن کُنتُم مَّرْضَى أَوْ عَلَى سَفَر أَوْجَآءَ أَحَدٌ مِّنکُم مِّنَ الْغَآئِطِ أَوْلَـمَسْتُمُ النِّسَآءَ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَآءً فَتَیَمَّمُوا صَعِیداً طَّیِّباً فَامْسَحُوا بِوُجُوهِکُمْ وَأَیْدِیکُم مِّنْهُ مَا یُرِیدُ اللهُ لِیَجْعَلَ عَلَیْکُم مِّنْ حَرَج وَلَـکِن یُرِیدُ لِیُطَهِّرَکُمْ وَلِیُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَیْکُمْ لَعَلَّکُمْ تَشْکُرُونَ (6)

6- O, YOU WHO BELIEVE! WHEN YOU GET UP FOR PRAYER, WASH YOUR FACES AND YOUR HANDS AS FAR AS THE ELBOWS, AND WIPE YOUR HEADS, AND YOUR FEET TO THE ANKLE. AND IF YOU WERE DEFILED (THROUGH SEXUAL INTERCOURSE) CLEANSE YOURSELVES. AND IF YOU ARE SICK OR ON A JOURNEY, OR IF ONE OF YOU COMES FROM THE WATER CLOSET, OR YOU HAVE TOUCHED WOMEN, AND YOU FIND NO WATER, THEN TOUCH SOME CLEAN SAND OR SOIL, AND WIPE YOUR FACES AND YOUR HANDS WITH IT.

ALLAH DOES NOT WANT TO PUT ON YOU ANY DIFFICULTY, HE RATHER WANTS TO PURIFY YOU, AND THAT TO COMPLETE HIS FAVOUR TO YOU, PERHAPS YOU MAY BE THANKFUL.
