Allah commands that we live our
lives always observing
Taharah
.
As Muslims, we should therefore
pay careful attention to the follow-
ing:
Taharah
of the Mind and Heart
Muslims are duty-bound to have
pure thoughts and feelings.
Pure thoughts and feelings lead
to virtue and the performance of
good deeds.
On the other hand evil thoughts
and feelings lead to sin and caus-
ing harm to others.
Evil thoughts and feelings enter
the heart through the eyes and
ears.
A Muslim must therefore not look
at evil things nor listen to evil talk.
Evil thoughts and feelings are
forms of filth and impurity which
stain the soul.
These then cause the heart to
become ‘dark’ and ‘rusty’.
