Can Hanafi women do wudu naked?

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Question:

Can Hanafi women do wudu naked?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate.

May His blessings and peace be on His Beloved Prophet, the best of creation, and his family, companions and followers.

The wudu is valid if its integrals are fulfilled. It is proper if its sunnas are performed. It is improper to perform wudu when naked.

Now What?

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Knowledge is only through study." While some knowledge can be gained from reading or casually listening to lectures, the best means to gain knowledge is through finding a qualified teacher and then setting up a systematic program of learning. Picking up a book or reading an article and trying to figure things out on our own is no substitute for learning from someone who has a direct link to our living tradition.
