Mufti explains if dhikr after prayers needs wudu
The Islamic Jurisprudence Authority's fatwa clarifies that reciting dhikr (remembrance of God) after the obligatory prayers is recommended and not a condition for the prayer to be valid. Wudu (ablution) and purification are not necessary for the remembrance of Allah after the prayer; scholars have confirmed that dhikr can be performed without ritual purity. It is also recommended to maintain cleanliness during dhikr out of reverence and respect, but the absence of purity does not invalidate the remembrance. Additionally, it was pointed out that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) would remember Allah at all times, even though there are situations where wudu is preferred. However, dhikr is not dependent on these conditions. Ultimately, it is permissible to complete the dhikr after prayer without wudu, but it is better and more highly recommended for the worshipper to be in a state of purity when engaging in dhikr.
