Save yourself From Indecency Free Download Islamic Book In English Pdf
Islam is a
religion of purity and chastity. Its purity is not limited to just the
dress and attire. Its purity is not limited to the parts of the body.
Its cleanliness is not bound to the home and hearth. These all are but
external purity.
Islam insists on
purity of the inward aspect (Batin) much more than it insists on purity
of the outward aspect (Dhahir). It teaches one to have pure character
and attributes. It teaches us to clean our thoughts and notions. It
prohibits the filth of ignobleness and teaches us to stay away from evil
and unchaste thoughts. It teaches us to stay away indecency and
immodesty. Thus, Islam wants us to avoid all kinds of impurity, be it
external, internal or of any other kind or type. Almighty Allah says in
the Holy Quran:
Say:- My Lord has declared unlawful only (all) the indecent acts which become known. (Surah Al A’raaf: 07:33)
Abstaining from lewd gazing and sweetness of worship
Whenever anyone’s
gaze falls on any stranger (non-Mahram) and he/she turns it away, then
from the court of Almighty Allah, that person is granted sweetness in
worship. As per this Hadith of the the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam)
Translation: It has been
narrated on the authority of Hadhrat Abu Umama (May Almighty Allah be
well pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam) said: Whichever Muslim unintentionally sees the beauty of an
unrelated (non-Mahram) woman and immediately turns his gaze down, then
Almighty Allah will grant him the guidance to perform such worship, the
sweetness of which he will actually feel. (Musnad Imam Ahmad, Musnad
Abi Umamatal Bahili, Hadith No. 22938)
One of the
reasons that the Muslims have been ordered to keep their gaze down is
that they should not see any woman. When someone ends up seeing a woman
who is without Hijab, then in this situation, it becomes difficult to
control one’s base desires (Nafs). That’s why the Holy Prophet
(Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) has ordered the removal of the root cause
of all this corruption.
Lewd gazing is
the prime reason which creates immodesty and is a big reason for
indecency. The Lord Almighty Allah has posed restrictions on the very
source of indecency....!
