Truth:

Both traditions use water extensively for purification. In Islam, Wudu (ablution) is performed with water before prayer. The Quran states: "O you who have believed, when you rise to [perform] prayer, wash your faces and your forearms" (5:6). In Hinduism, water is used for Snan (ritual bath) and in various purification ceremonies. Both traditions: 1) Use water for physical cleansing, 2) Symbolize spiritual purification, 3) Consider water sacred, 4) Use it in rituals, 5) View it as purifying. The Quran describes water as a blessing: "And We have made from water every living thing" (21:30). Hindu scriptures describe water as purifying and sacred. Both view water as essential for both physical and spiritual cleanliness. The use of water in both traditions demonstrates the importance of purity in approaching the divine.
