Wudu by immersion means that one should dip one's face and hands into water, with the intention of performing Wudu. And there can be no problem in performing wiping with the moisture thus acquired, though it is against precaution. Even while performing Wudu by immersion, one should wash one's face and hand downwards from above. Hence, when a person dips his face and hands in water, with the intention of Wudu, he should dip his face in water from the forehead and his hands from elbows. There is no harm in performing Wudu of some parts by immersion, and of others in the usual way. -
* It is obligatory to perform Wudhu for the following six things: • For all obligatory prayers, except Salat al-Mayyit. As regards Mustahab prayers, Wudhu is a condition for their validity. • For the Sajdah and Tashahhud which a person forgot to perform during the prayers, provided that he invalidated his Wudhu after Salat , and before performing those forgotten acts. It is not obligatory to perform Wudhu for Sajdatus sahw. • For the obligatory Tawaf of the holy Ka'bah. • If a person has made a Nadhr, or a solemn pledge, or taken an oath for Wudhu. • If a person has made a Nadhr, for example, that he would kiss the Holy Qur'an. • For washing and making Clean (tahir/pak) the holy Qur'an which has become najis, or for taking it out from lavatory etc. in which it has fallen, when he becomes obliged to touch the script of the holy Qur'an with his hand, or some other part of his body. But if t he delay by making Wudhu causes further desecration of the holy Qur'an, one should take it out from lavatory etc., or make it Clean (tahir/pak), without performing Wudhu.

Wudhu becomes void on account of the following seven things: • Urinating. • Excretion. • Passing wind from the rear. • A sleep, deep enough to restrict sight and hearing. However, if the eyes do not see anything, but the ears can hear, Wudhu does not become void. • Things on account of which a person loses his sensibility, like insanity, intoxication or unconsciousness. • Istihada – which will be dealt with in women exclusive rulings. • Janabat, and, as a recommended precaution, every state which requires Ghusl.

Question: I am a simple worker in a factory. One day, a government official came and said that this water well that you are using is illegal and you should give some money to the government for this well, and without knowing it, I performed ablution and ghusl with the water of this well for many years. What is my duty? Are the ghusls I performed and the prayers I prayed correct? Or am I still in the state of Janabah? Answer: Ghusls as well as the prayers you have recited are correct, and there is no need to perform ghusl again, but for subsequent ghusls, use permissible (non-usurped) water.
