PURITY IS HALF OF FAITH, PRAYER IS LIGHT
Abu Malik Al-Harith bin Asim Al-Ash’ar (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said:
“Purity is half of faith; the utterance of Al-hamdulillah (all praise belongs to Allāh) fills the Scales of good actions; the utterance of Subhan Allāh wal-hamdulillah (ALLĀH is far removed from every imperfection and all praise belongs to ALLĀH) fills the space between the heavens and the earth, and Salat (prayer) is light; and charity is the proof of Faith; and endurance is light, and the Qur’ān is a plea in your favour or against you. Every person departs; he either ransoms it or puts it into perdition”. {Muslim}.
