Question

During wudu, I used to wipe my feet from the beginning of the nails to the arch of the foot. Later, I learned that wiping should be done from the tips of the toes to the joint between the foot and the leg, which is higher than the arch. Is my wudu invalid? Do I have to repeat all my past acts of worship, including prayer, Hajj, and Umrah?

In the name of Allah, it is sufficient to wipe up to the arch, though it is preferable to wipe up to the joint. Your acts of worship are valid, InshaAllah.. Allah knows best.
