Lesson thirty seven :Be clean

Islam's Prophet( S. A. )said:

أَفْوَاهُكُمْ مِنْ طُرُقِ رَبِّكُمْ فَأَحَبُّها إلى اللّه أَطْيَبُها رِيْحا فَطَيَّبُوها بِما قَدَرْتُم عَلَيْهِ.

Translation

Your mouth is one of your God's ways. The most favorite mouth before Allah is the most fragrant one.

So keep your mouth fragrant as much as you can..

Brief description

This tradition which is narrated in Vasael- ul- Shia book in respect to rules of tooth brushing has two outward and inward meanings. Its outward indicates that since man says God's remembrance, recites divine verses and worships Him by his mouth, so he shall keep it clean and fragrant.

And its inward meaning signifies that mouth which is one of the ways of relation with divine paths and His servants, is more favorite before God when it becomes fragrant with good, clean and kind speeches and is free from any bad speech, insult, lie and harshness.
