Ritual purity in Islam

Purity (Arabic: طهارة, ṭahāra(h)[1]) is an essential aspect of Islam. It is the opposite of najāsa, the state of being ritually impure. It is achieved by first removing physical impurities (for example, urine) from the body, and then removing ritual impurity through wudu (usually) or ghusl.

  1. ^ The same term taharah is also found in Hebrew, applying to purity in Ancient Israel and modern Judaism also.
