Giving with Purpose: Zakat as a Path to Compassion and Justice
Spiritual purification, or tazkiyah, is the process of refining the soul through remembrance, repentance, and righteous deeds.
It focuses on removing envy, arrogance, and attachment to worldly desires, allowing the heart to become receptive to divine light.
Through prayer, fasting, and charity, believers nurture sincerity and compassion, achieving inner peace.
Why Islam emphasizes spiritual purification as the key to true success—purity of the heart that connects the believer directly to Allah.
