Supplication During Ablution

Dear Brothers & Sisters,
As-Salaamu-Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:
Is there any du’a (supplication) to be recited during wudu (ablution)?
(There may be some grammatical and spelling errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in confidentiality.)

Answer:
Praise be to Allah.

There is no proof that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said any du’a during wudu whilst washing or wiping his limbs, etc. Any such du’as that are known are bid’ah (innovation) and have no basis. What is known from Islamic sources is that one should say “Bismillah il-Rahman il-Raheem” at the beginning, and after finishing one should recite the Shahadatayn (testimony of faith) and say, “Allahumma aj’alni min al-tawwabeen waj’alni min al-mutatahhireen (O Allah, make me one of those who repent and make me one of those who purify themselves).”

And Allah knows best.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah's Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
