Summary
Wudu using a water spray is valid provided the conditions for valid wudu are met. These include using pure, purifying absolute water, letting the water flow over the limbs, and having nothing that blocks water from reaching them. It is nevertheless preferable to perform wudu in the usual manner so that recommended acts, such as washing three times and rinsing the mouth, are not omitted.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Berbalik kepada persoalan di atas, menggunakan spray air untuk mengambil wuduk di dalam pejabat adalah sah sekiranya cukup syarat-syarat sahnya.
