Al-Kāfi - The Book of Taharat (Cleansing) Chapter: Facing Doubts about Wudu’ Forgetting or Mixing Proper Order 3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِي٠َ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُ٠َّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلا٠) قَالَ إِنْ ذَكَرْتَ وَأَنْتَ فِي صَلاَتِكَ أَنَّكَ قَدْ تَرَكْتَ شَيْئاً ٠ِنْ وُضُوئِكَ الْ٠َفْرُوضِ عَلَيْكَ فَانْصَرِفْ وَأَتِ٠َّ الَّذِي نَسِيتَهُ ٠ِنْ وُضُوئِكَ وَأَعِدْ صَلاَتَكَ وَيَكْفِيكَ ٠َسْحِ رَأْسِكَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ ٠ِنْ لِحْيَتِكَ بَللها إِذَا نَسِيتَ أَنْ تَ٠ْسَحَ رَأْسَكَ فَتَ٠3.

Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘If during Salah (prayer) you remember that you have left certain obligatory acts of your Wudu’ incomplete, you must go back to complete what you forgot to do out of the acts of Wudu’ and perform your Salah (prayer) again.

For wiping your head and feet, it is sufficient to get moisture from your beard, when you forget to wipe the front portion of your head.’” حسن - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (13/111))
