Question
Can a person only do the farz of wudu if there is minimal time left for salah? And will the prayer still be accepted?
Answer
If there is not much time remaining for prayer, it is permissible to perform the fara’id (compulsory) acts of wudu. The salah would be valid.
The compulsory acts of wudu are to 1) wash the face completely, 2) wash both the hands to and including the elbow, 3) masah (wipe) over 1/4th of the head and 4) wash feet (including the ankles).
Allah knows best.
