Question

Find a answer about purify ourselves is to be dificult. What can recommend the imam to us to be pure or how we can purify ourselves ?

Answer

You have asked a very important question and for that we commend you.

Allah Ta'ala sent Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) with four great responsibilities, one being, Tazkiyatun-Nafs (purification of the soul). Every person has many shortcomings, for example, pride, anger, jealousy, etc. and living with such evils brings grief and agony to a person. Every effort should be made to change the evil of pride to humbleness, anger to forgiveness, jealousy to submission to the Will of Allah. The most efficient way to reform oneself and attain spirituality is to be under the supervision of a reliable and qualified spiritual guide (Shaykh). Until you find such a person, we advise you communicate with the pious and learned scholars and seek and follow their advice.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
