QUESTION:

Do I have to be in wudhu, fully covered, and facing east when I pray a dua
such as Dua-e-Kumail?


ANSWER:

You do not have to be in a state of taharat (ritual purity) or facing
qibla when reciting a dua.  However, you do need to be in a state of
taharat if you physically touch the name of Allah or the ma'sumin.
