Is there a bath before each prayer?

Many people who are just starting to get acquainted with the Islamic religion may wonder: is there a ablution of a mandatory procedure before each prayer?

Bathing is an obligatory component of each prayer.
Ritual ablution or in other words “Taharat” has special importance for the Islamic religion.
Because of this, many significant rites cannot be performed by a Muslim who has not passed the ablution procedure.

It is generally accepted that the non -passing ritual of washing the Muslim is in a state called “ritual desecration”. Such a person is prohibited from performing a number of actions and things:

It is forbidden to touch the Holy Koran, which is completely written in Arabic. At the same time, it is allowed to touch the texts that were translated into other languages.
The Muslim has no right to perform prayer.
He has no right to visit the mosque.
A Muslim who did not pass the procedure for complete ablution does not have the right to bypass the Holy Kaaba.

By the way, the definition of “Taharat” implies the purification of both external and internal, that is, both physical and spiritual. It is divided into internal and external. You can achieve an external “Taharat” with the help of a washing procedure, despite the fact that it is possible to achieve internal - only by righteousness and repentance.

It is worth knowing: The ablution ritual is a purification that every believer Muslim must fulfill every day, and not once, but repeatedly.

Muslims are prescribed to do was washing not only before the implementation of religious rites, but also on an ongoing basis. A believer Muslim should always be ritually clean. Taharat and Gusl are in the Islamic religion of good deeds, so for both of these types of ritual cleansing, the Muslim has a reward.

Another and most important dignity of washing is that when committing this rite, a believer Muslim moves to redeem his own sins. As written in the hadith at-Tirmizi and Muslim:

"Washing his face when performing washing, the believer washes off sins - perfect, washing the hands rinses sins - the sins committed by them, washing the legs - committed by the legs."

In this way, a believer Muslim will be cleansed of sins.
