Emphasis on personal hygiene


Islamic teachings lay great emphasis on keeping one’s clothes and self clean. Tirmizi, Adab, 41 exhorts, “Certainly, Allah is clean and He likes cleanness.” It is highly advised to clean rubbish, take daily showers and not leave bodily waste out in the open. As the various European plagues of the Middle Ages have shown, not observing these precautions can lead to infestations of insect-spreading rodents.
