- Would my wudu be invalid if I wash my first foot, wipe it or dry it, wear boots and then wash the second foot (and then wipe /dry my second foot and wear boots on second). I use this method at work place and a friend pointed out that both the feet need to be washed and then it can be dried to wear boots otherwise it would invalidate the wudu.
- Is it allowed to perform Wudu until Masah, do some other work like attend a call / meeting and then wash the feet later? In such case does the person need to start again from the beginning? [sic]
1) Would my wudu be invalid if I wash my first foot, wipe it or dry it, wear boots and then wash the second foot (and then wipe /dry my second foot and wear boots on second).

Answer: Yes, your wudhu’ will be valid. However, it will be makruh for breaking the continuity of wudhu’ and delaying washing of one limb after the previous one. Maintaining continuity (al-wala’) is Sunnah Mu’akkadah and refers to washing the next limb before the previous one dries. Losing such continuity deprives one of the rewards of the wudhu’.
2) Is it allowed to perform Wudu until Masah, do some other work like attend a call / meeting and then wash the feet later? In such case does the person need to start again from the beginning? [sic]
Answer: Same as above.
