Supplications for Ghusl and Wudu

Question

Can you e-mail me all the Du'as for ghusl & wudu with translations?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

There is no authentic supplications said during Wudu (ablution) or Ghusl (ritual bath). But it is desirable to utter the name of Allah; i.e., saying Bismillah, before starting them. After completing Wudu or Ghusl, one is advised to say the following supplication: (I bear witness that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah Alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His Slave and Messenger.)

One may add to the above Du'aa’ (supplication) the following: (O Allah make me of those who return to You often in repentance and make me of those who remain clean and pure.)

One may also recite this Du'aa’: (How perfect You are, O Allah, and I Praise You; I bear witness that None has the right to be worshipped except You; I seek Your forgiveness and turn in repentance to You.”

Allah knows best.
