Pointing out to the importance of the \u2018outward\u2019 and \u2018inward\u2019 cleanliness, the Friday imam of Sunnis in Zahedan termed these two points the tools of obtaining the pleasure of the Almighty.
\nShaikh Abdol-Hamid said in his sermon of Oct. 28, 2016, \u201cBefore the rise of Islam, human beings were involved in various kinds of outward and inward filth and grime. People were involved in dirt like idolatry and fallen morally.\u201d
\n\u201cThe Almighty bestowed mankind cleanliness and neatness of the outward and inward. The teachings and directions of the Noble Qur\u2019an and Sunnah urge a lot on the both types of tidiness. Islam underlines on the outward tidiness (dress, body, mouth and etc.) and inward neatness (beliefs and moral). The initial verses of the chapter \u2018al-Moddathir\u2019 urges on the outward and inward cleanliness,\u201d he added more.
\nThe rector of Darululoom Zahedan further said, \u201cWhen there was not any outward tidiness, Islam termed washing the whole body mandatory making it \u2018Sunnah\u2019 on Fridays. There are many verses and narrations which suggest Muslims to take a shower, dress in clean cloths and brush teeth to avoid bad smell of the mouth.\u201d
\n\u201cToothbrush and tooth-stick have many advantages for health; many of the diseases have root in the filth of mouth and teeth. The Hadiths order us to clean mouth and nose,\u201d he said.
\nKhateeb of Sunnis in Zahedan added more, \u201cIslam is the first religion which enjoined for building bathroom and toilet. Ablution was classified obligatory for offering prayers. Ablution is called \u2018wudu\u2019 in Arabic because it brings brightness as its literally meaning suggests.\u201d
\n\u201cWhen we make ablution, all sins fall from the body. Wudu\/ablution is not only a tool for the cleanliness of the body, but it also cleans inward, cleanses small sins and remits major misdeeds. Even it has been experienced that ablution normalizes high blood pressure. Thus the angry men are advised to make ablution.\u201d
\nMawlana Abdol-Hamid termed \u2018repentance\u2019 the best way for inward cleanliness and said, \u201cAllah Almighty loves the repentance of His servants. According to Hadith, the children of Adam are all profuse wrongdoers, but the best of profuse wrongdoers are those who repent. Repentance makes the man clean of sins\u2019 dirt.\u201d
\n\u201cTidiness is half of faith. As Allah loves inward cleanliness, He loves outward cleanliness, too. The outward neatness has consequences on the inward neatness. The man who does not care his health and outward tidiness, he cannot worship his Lord neither he can manage his routine works. Thus the tidiness of the soul is related to the tidiness of outward.\u201d
\nQuoting Allamah Shah Waliullah Dhilawi, may Allah have mercy on him, the Hadith teacher of Darululoom Zahedan said, \u201cImam Waliullah says Islam has been based on four points and pivots; \u2018tidiness\u2019, \u2018submission before the Almighty\u2019, \u2018generosity\u2019 and \u2018justice\u2019. So the inward cleanliness is an obligatory; without it mankind cannot get the pleasure of the Almighty. Purification of the soul is the biggest Jihad and effort on the path of Allah.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the end of his sermon, Khateeb and Friday Imam of Sunnis strongly urged on offering prayers in the beginning of the time, specially the two prayers of moon\/Dhuhr and Friday\/Jum\u2019ah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
