The Scientific Uses Of Ablution ( Wudhu : وضو ) Part-I I

Benefits of washing hands:

In Ablution, the hands are washed first and there are many benefits. People hold many things in their hands causing bacteria to spread and grow on the skin. If the hands are not washed during the day, there is a possibility of getting many types of skin diseases:-
 (1) Heat spots,
 (2) Itchy skin,
 (3) Eczema,
 (4) Bad skin,
 (5) Change in the skin colour etc. When we wash our hands, rays come out from the tips of our fingers and create a circle around our hand and due to this; our inner electrics come into motion, which makes our hands more beautiful. 

Benefits of washing the mouth:

First the hands are washed therefore they become clean from bacteria. If the hands were not washed, the bacteria would travel into the stomach via the mouth producing many illnesses in the stomach. Due to the air, many germs travel into our mouth and some bacteria stay in the mouth from bits of food left in between the teeth. By washing the mouth and using a Miswaak, the bacteria will be removed. If the mouth is not cleaned, one can be affected from the following illnesses: (1) One of the first signs of aids is the swelling of the mouth,
(2) Edges of the mouth splitting;
(3) Moniliasis of the mouth and lips, 
(4) Mouth becomes sore etc.
If the person is not fasting, it is Sunnah to gargle. The one who gargles water will not get tonsillitis and he will be saved from many throat illnesses including cancer in the throat.  

Benefits of washing the nose:

The lungs need air free from pollution and it should contain 80% moisture and should be more than 90 degrees Fahrenheit. To attain this type of air, Allah  has blessed us with a nose. To make the air moist, the nose creates a quarter of a gallon of moisture and the hair in the nostrils stop dirt going inside the lungs. There is a microscopic brush in the nose. This brush contains small particles, which kill the bacteria that travel through the air and enter the nose. These particles also defend the lysozium, which assists and saves the eyes from infection. Alhamdu-Lillah , the one who does Ablution, rinses his nose and due to this, the nose is cleaned and due to the water entering the nose, a Muslim is saved from many illnesses of the nose. It is very beneficial for a person to do 'Ghusl of the nose' (to sniff water up the nose) if he suffers from wounds in the nose and from catarrh.

Benefits of washing the face:

Nowadays the pollution in the atmosphere is increasing. Many chemicals and dirt fly into the eyes and on the face. If the face and the eyes are not washed, they are at risk of becoming infected. A European doctor wrote a book called 'Eye, water and Health'. In this book he encouraged people to wash their eyes many times in a day, otherwise you risk catching many dangerous illnesses. Very rarely do you get spots if you wash your face. Beauticians agree that all types of creams and lotions leave marks on your face and you should wash your face a number of times in a day to make your face look beautiful. A member of the American Council for beauty, 'beychar' has stated a very interesting fact. She states, 'Muslims do not need any type of chemical lotions as they wash their face many times in a day during Ablution which safeguards it from many illnesses.' Experts say that, 'The face should be washed over and over again to save it from allergies.' Alhamdu-Lillah! This is only possible during Ablution.  Alhamdu-Lillah the face is massaged when performing Ablution, the blood circulates around the face and the dirt is removed from the face and it becomes more beautiful.
