Ques: Salaam, after washing the face in wudu, do we take new water and make khalil of the beard, or is it done using he leftover water from washing the face. JazakAllah khair

Ans: Assalamu Alaikum.

Take new water and make Takhlil of the beard.

In Sunan-Abu-Dawud:

عن أنس يعنى ابن مالك أن رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم- كان إذا توضأ أخذ كفا من ماء فأدخله تحت حنكه فخلل به لحيته وقال: هكذا أمرنى ربى عز وجل

Anas ibn Malik narrates: "Whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) performed ablution, he took a handful of water, and, putting it under his chin, made it go through his beard, saying: Thus did my Lord command me."

And Allah knows best.
