Purity — Taharah — is both a physical and spiritual requirement in Islam. Muslims pray only in a state of purity, perform ablution (wudu) before worship, and are commanded to purify their hearts from hypocrisy, envy, and malice. The Quran says: "Indeed, Allah loves those who repent and those who purify themselves." To name a child with a purity name is to invoke this beloved quality.
