This paper aims to shed light on the concept of self-purification and its importance as highlighted in the Qur’an. It will also try to explain its benefits. It will outline the means of self-purification mentioned in the Qur’an, relating these to the aims and objectives of the Qur’an in an inductive and deductive reasoning approach.
The paper finally gives an outline of the most important conclusions, including:
One: Great importance is attached to self-purification among the general objectives of the Qur’an. It has always been one of the main objectives of the messages of prophets.
Two: Self-purification has multiple benefits for the one who does it, and these are reflected in a person’s strength of faith, as well as his present life and the life to come.
Three: As clearly mentioned in the Qur’an, there are nine means of self-purification, which are:
- Belief in God’s oneness;
- Implementation of God’s rulings;
- Prayer and God glorification;
- Recitation of the Qur’an; reflection on it; learning and understanding its lessons;
- Repentance of sin;
- Charitable donations;
- Stating the truth and refusal to barter it for any price;
- Refraining from self praise and justification;
