Al-Ma'idah 5:6 يا ايها الذين امنوا اذا قمتم الى الصلاة فاغسلوا وجوهكم وايديكم الى المرافق وامسحوا برءوسكم وارجلكم الى الكعبين وان كنتم جنبا فاطهروا وان كنتم مرضى او على سفر او جاء احد منكم من الغايط او لامستم النساء فلم تجدوا ماء فتيمموا صعيدا طيبا فامسحوا بوجوهكم وايديكم منه ما يريد الله ليجعل عليكم من حرج ولاكن يريد ليطهركم وليتم نعمته عليكم لعلكم تشكرون ٦

5:6
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا
ٱلَّذِينَ
ءَامَنُوٓاْ
إِذَا
قُمۡتُمۡ
إِلَى
ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ
فَٱغۡسِلُواْ
وُجُوهَكُمۡ
وَأَيۡدِيَكُمۡ
إِلَى
ٱلۡمَرَافِقِ
وَٱمۡسَحُواْ
بِرُءُوسِكُمۡ
وَأَرۡجُلَكُمۡ
إِلَى
ٱلۡكَعۡبَيۡنِۚ
وَإِن
كُنتُمۡ
جُنُبٗا
فَٱطَّهَّرُواْۚ
وَإِن
كُنتُم
مَّرۡضَىٰٓ
أَوۡ
عَلَىٰ
سَفَرٍ
أَوۡ
جَآءَ
أَحَدٞ
مِّنكُم
مِّنَ
ٱلۡغَآئِطِ
أَوۡ
لَٰمَسۡتُمُ
ٱلنِّسَآءَ
فَلَمۡ
تَجِدُواْ
مَآءٗ
فَتَيَمَّمُواْ
صَعِيدٗا
طَيِّبٗا
فَٱمۡسَحُواْ
بِوُجُوهِكُمۡ
وَأَيۡدِيكُم
مِّنۡهُۚ
مَا
يُرِيدُ
ٱللَّهُ
لِيَجۡعَلَ
عَلَيۡكُم
مِّنۡ
حَرَجٖ
وَلَٰكِن
يُرِيدُ
لِيُطَهِّرَكُمۡ
وَلِيُتِمَّ
نِعۡمَتَهُۥ
عَلَيۡكُمۡ
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
تَشۡكُرُونَ

O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and your hands (and arms) to the elbows; Rub your heads (with water); and (wash) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands, Allah doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete his favour to you, that ye may be grateful.
