Answered by Ustadha Shazia Ahmad
Does washing the following body parts only once, fulfill the minimum requirement of wudu according to the Shafi’i madhab — washing face once, hands and arms once, wiping a single hair once, and washing each foot (and between toes) once?
Answer:
Yes, washing those body parts, only once, does fulfill the minimum requirement of wudu according to the Shafi”i madhhab. However, there are two other integrals for a valid wudu in our school. The first is the intention and the other is that these body parts be washed in the order that you mentioned.
I have provided a link about the integral of intention, for further clarification:

And Allah knows best.
