Question

I was performing ghusl after masturbation. I was taking baths and mumbling songs. Suddenly the shampoo bottle fell on the shower and it broke. So I wore my clothes and came out then my dad called the plumber after scolding the hell out of me. But I have some concerns. I took the bath while mumbling songs and didn't perform wudu yet. Now I feel like I didn't take the bath properly and like negative thoughts are coming to me that not all hairs of my body were wet. And stuff like that. This happens to me when I am praying and often repeat aayats and wudu because of these waswasas. So now please tell me what to do. Now the tap will be fixed in 1 day. So now I think I should perform wudu and start praying then those thoughts come to me and make me feel that no I shouldn't perform wudu now because I didn't take a bath properly. And the way I do ghusl is that first I wash off all the impurities then wet my body and hair. But I am really confused that how should I make sure that my back is wet too. I can't look at my back. So because of this confusion I waste a lot of water. So please tell me what to do.

Answer

Do not pay attention to these doubts. Make wudhu and perform your Salaah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
