The Believer's Mark

When the billions from humanity stand on the plains of their reckoning, on that appointed day there will be only one way to spot them. It is the believer's mark - the signs of light from the parts of their bodies that they had purified for their worship of Allah the Most High.

How important do you think the matter of purity is? Few are the actions for which Allah has declared His love, and from them is purification. Allah says:

Verily, Allah loves those who repent and loves those who purify themselves. [AlBaqarah: 222]

imilarly, very few actions have been equated with half of emaan, and one of them is purification since the Prophet sallallahu aliahi wa sallam said: Purification is half of Emaan. Infact so beloved is this action of purity to Allah that even the 8 gates of Jannah are open to the one who purifies himself perfectly and follows it up with a blessed dua. And if this isn't enough to show the importance of this topic, then atleast the fact that the prayer will be the first to be judged on the Day of judgement and the prayer can never be correct nor acceptable without purity.
