The answer

If the ablution (wudu') is performed in an impure place, this is contrary to what is preferable. It is among the'mustahabbat' (recommended acts) of ablution that it be performed in a pure place, as mentioned by Al-Hattab in "Mawahib Al-Jalil," and by Ibn Bashir, Qadi Iyad, and others. In Al-Fatawa Al-Hindiyya, it is stated that among the etiquettes of ablution is that it be performed in a pure place, because the water of ablution has sanctity. However, if the place has been purified from impurity, there is no harm in performing ablution there.
