Islam is a Religion of Cleanliness

3 min read

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.

A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

(Qur’ān 02:222). Allah ﷻ states in the Holy Quran: ‘Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves.’ Allah ﷻ loves cleanliness and clean people. Cleanliness is from Iman (faith). Exterior cleanliness is one of the first worships. Ṭahāra (purity), Wuḍūʾ (ablution), Ghusl (full-body ablution), being clean at home and everywhere and washing your hands before and after eating, these are all a part of cleanliness.

The Religion of Islam is a religion of cleanliness. There’s no permission to eat blood or dead animals. You’ll eat clean food, live a clean life and do your worships in a clean way. This is how Allah ﷻ made this beautiful religion, you cannot find it in any other religion or with others. The others do everything and then they claim to be clean; they have no exterior or interior/spiritual cleanliness. Now other than exterior cleanliness, we also need spiritual cleanliness and that happens through repentance. ‘ ’, ‘Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves.’ (Qur’ān 02:222). Allah ﷻ loves the repenting ones and then the clean ones, so first of all we need to repent. To ask for forgiveness and repentance is important. When you do that, the interior dirt gets cleaned and goes away, and a person comes in front of Allah ﷻ all pure and clean.

Thank Allah ﷻ the Religion of Islam is clean both externally and spiritually. That is why Islam is a religion not loved by shaytan and his followers, because this religion is clean. Shaytan and the other ones are dirty, the things they do are dirty, what they drink and eat is dirty. They do all sorts of dirty things and as if that wasn’t enough, they attempt dirtier works and things. And then as if that wasn’t enough for them either, they also encourage others to do the same.

Just as the people of Lut. When Prophet Lut had guests over, angels came to him as guests in the form of men and those people bothered them. There were no people before them that did that dirty thing that they did. They bothered those guests and that led them to be destroyed; in the end they were all destroyed. This means that it is the filthiest thing, it is the worst thing to do. Those who do it and make others do it and encourage them, their punishment will certainly be great both in this world and the next. Those who do this filthy action will be ruined. Whoever is supporting them saying it’s human rights and what not, what is this? Is this humanity? Also, they are punishing those who are against it in places like Europe and those who are clean. You cannot say anything against such things or else they will sue you for it. Thank Allah ﷻ they cannot do such things here yet and they will not be able to do it insha’Allah. They cannot do it in Islamic countries Allah ﷻ willing. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ protect us from shaytan and his followers. May Allah ﷻ not deviate us from the true path insha’Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
