Dua after Wudu/Wazu ki Dua in Arabic

Narrated by Umar bin Al-Khattab that Prophet Muhammad(ﷺ) said:
“Whoever performs Wudu and does it effectively, then says,

أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِي مِنَ التَّوَّابِينَ وَاجْعَلْنِي مِنَ الْمُتَطَهِّرِينَ

Eight gates to Paradise are then unlocked for him, that may enter by whichever of them wishes.”

How to do Wudu/Wazu Karne ka Tarika

Wudu, also known as ablution, is a purification process performed by Muslims before daily prayers. It involves cleansing specific parts of the body in order to prepare oneself for prayer.
Before beginning ablution (wazu), make a sincere intention and ensure that the environment around you is pure. Then, start doing the process of ablution (wazu) as follows.

Recite “Bismillah”.
Begin by washing your hands up to the wrists 3 times.
Swirl the water in your mouth and spit it out 3 times.
Sniff water 3 times into your nostrils, then expel the water. Clean your nose by using your left hand.
Wash your entire face 3 times, from hairline to chin and from ear to ear.
Begin with the right arm and wash it three times up to the elbow. Do the same with the left arm.
Wet the hands, then wipe the head once with the wet hands. Move your hands from the front to the back of the head and back to the front.
Wipe the inside of your ears with your index fingers and the outside with your thumbs.
Begin with the right foot and wash it 3 times up to the ankles. Do the same with the left foot.
After you have completed ablution, recite the Shahada, which is the declaration of faith.
