Wudu is an important part of ritual purity in Islam that is governed by fiqh, [1] which specifies hygienical jurisprudence and defines the rituals that constitute it. Ritual purity is called tahara. Wudu is typically performed before Salah or reading the Quran.
Some of the examples of something considered makruh are the use of a great amount of water when performing ritual purifications known as the wudu (partial ablution, or abdest) and ghusl (full ablution) or the consumption of garlic before attending the mosque or socializing with others. [1] [5]
The ta'wiz, tawiz (Urdu: تعویز, Hindi: तावीज़), [1] muska or taʿwīdh (Arabic: تعويذ) is an amulet or locket worn for protection common in South Asia. [2] Tawiz is sometimes worn by Muslims with the belief of getting protection or blessings by virtue of what is in it. It is intended to be an amulet.
