Fatwa #2427 August 2000Pakistan

If someone takes a shower and has the intention to pray, is this valid wudu? Or must he make wudu before he prays?

Answer

It is Mustahabb to make Wudhu before bathing. However, if one did not make
Wudhu before bathing, since the limbs of Wudhu will be washed during
bathing, the Wudhu will be valid. Wudhu does not have to repeated before
performing Salaat.
