Abstract

The article examines the philosophical, religious and moral aspects of purity of body and soul in the Islamic tradition. Particular attention is paid to the relationship between physical and spiritual health in light of the verses of the Quran, the hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the works of Muslim thinkers such as Makhdumi A'zam and Ya'qubi Charhiy. Purification in Islam is interpreted not only as a hygienic obligation, but as a spiritual act that brings a person closer to Allah. Purity of heart is the basis of faith, and trials are an opportunity for moral growth. The meaning of the terms "tauba", "taharat", "baraka", "salam" in the context of Islamic anthropology is analyzed. It is emphasized that only harmony between physical and spiritual purity allows a person to achieve true perfection and find the love of the Almighty.

Keywords
