[quote]Salamo alaykoum,

Quote of brother Minara:  Qur’an mentions only 4(four) steps of ablution, which are as follows;
(5:6) “O you who believe, when you observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), you shall: (1) wash your faces, (2) wash your arms to the elbows, (3) wipe your heads, and (4) wash your feet to the ankles”.
***************************************************

For the ablution (wudhu), if we take ORIGINAL TRANSLATION of the verse (5: 6), it does not seem to be washing but wiping the feet. You can translate yourself the verse that is in front of you as below.

FAGHSOLU (WASH) Wojuhakum (your face) wa-aedeekum (and your hands) ilal-marafiq (upto the elbows), WAMSAHU (AND WIPE) be-rousekum (your heads) wa-arjolakum (and your feet) ilal-kaabain (upto the ankles) (5: 6)

FAGHSOLU (WASH) your face and your hands upto the elbows, 
AND
WAMSAHU (AND WIPE) your heads and your feet upto the ankles.

So washing the feet does not seems to be implying but wiping only.

I request you to remove this confusion of my mind.

Regards and Thanks![/quote]
