Muslims who come to the Mosque to pray must perform wudu before doing so. Wudu is often translated as "partial ablution". This is a sacred wash that symbolises spiritual cleansing and purity when coming before God. They must wash the exposed parts of the body so they are clean and presentable when praying as they believe Allah watches them pray. These exposed parts include washing their hands, mouth, throat, nose, ears, arms up to the elbow and feet. The Islamic prophet Muhammad once said that "Cleanliness is half of faith".
