Shaafi’ Wudhu Masaail (16)

7. It is sunnat to say the Tasmiyah softly.
8. The Tasmiyah should be read when washing the hands at the beginning of wudhu.
9. It is sunnat to make the intention of the sunan of wudhu in the heart when reciting the Tasmiyah.
10. If the Tasmiyah is left out at the beginning of wudhu, forgetfully or intentionally, then it should be read during the wudhu when one remembers. In this case the Tasmiyah to recite is:

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ اَوَّلَه وَآخِرَه

“In the Name of Allah at the beginning and at the end.”

11. After the Tasmiyah, make the niyyat of the sunan of wudhu, verbally, with these words:

نَوَيْتُ سُنَنَ الْوُضُوْءِ

“I intend the Sunnah acts of wudhu.”
