And most surely you conform (yourself) to sublime morality. Holy Qur’an (68:4)
The Holy Prophet of Islam was fond of scent and spent more on buying perfumes than on food. His pleasant smell filled the air of any place he passed, so that whosoever passed there knew that the Holy Prophet of Islam had passed that way.
He used to brush his teeth frequently and washed his blessed hands and mouth both before and after meals. Whenever the Holy Prophet of Islam was about to leave his house, he would look into a mirror or into water; he always left home with a clean, pleasant appearance. His dress was always clean, though simple. He was very mindful of cleanliness.
“Keep yourselves far from envy, because it eats up and takes away
good actions, like the fire that eats up and burns wood.”
