Qur’an
ic injunction was meant to impress that he
should purify his heart and soul of all impurities of belief
and creed and his dress and body of all kinds of filth,
defilement and uncleanliness unsavoury to good taste

Shari’ah
, the Sacred Law. The
Qur’an
has time and again impressed the great importance of
personal purification, so much so that it declares:
“
...Allah loves those who love to keep themselves
pure
.”
(
9: 108
)
“
Most surely Allah loves those people who refrain
from evil and keep themselves pure and clean
.”
(
2 : 222
)
The Holy Prophet [s] has presented, by his personal
example, the highest sense and level of purification and
fine taste. He has impressed its great importance over
and over again on the Muslim community as well. He is
reported to have said:
“
Cleanliness is one half of Faith
.”
He has enjoined cleanliness and given detailed instruc-
tions about the ways of achieving it, and demonstrated
practically how to keep oneself neat and clean at all
times.
