Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Simplified Islamic Laws for Young Adults Taharat Taharat (cleanliness) and keeping a clean body and surroundings are very important in Islam. Everyone must refrain from eating and drinking those things which are Najis; and (as for) the clothing that one wears in Salat - which is the best of actions in worshipping Allah - they must be clean, and it is best that they are the most pure of clothing.

Because of this, it is necessary to know what things are Najis and the way to make them Tahir. Issue 12: Everything that exists is Tahir except for eleven things, and those things that come into contact with them, also become Najis.

Issue 13: The things that are Najis, are the following: Urine Stool Semen Corpse Blood Dog Pig Alcohol Beer Non-Muslim ( Kafir ) The sweat of a Najis eating animal Issue 14: The urine and stool of humans and all animals whose meat is Haram (to eat) and whose blood gushes out, is Najis. Issue 15: The urine and stool of animals whose meat is Halal, like the cow and sheep, and animals whose blood does not gush out, like the snake and fish, are Tahir.

Issue 16: The urine and stool of animals whose meat is Makruh to eat, like the horse and donkey, is Tahir. Issue 17: The urine and droppings of birds whose meat is Haram (to eat), like the eagle, are Tahir, but it is better to stay away from such things.

The Rules of the Corpse Issue 18: An animal that has not been slaughtered according to the rules of Islam is called a corpse.[^1] Issue 19: Animals are divided into two categories: some have blood that gushes out; meaning that if their neck is cut, the blood comes out with force. Other animals have blood that does not gush out; meaning that if their neck is cut, the blood does not come out with force.

Issue 20: The corpse of an animal whose blood does not gush out; like the fish, is Tahir, even if it dies in water. Issue 21: (As for) the corpse of an animal whose blood gushes out; the parts that contain no life - like the hair and the horns, are Tahir; and the parts that contain life - like the flesh and skin, are Najis. Issue 22: All parts of the body of the dog and pig - whether living or dead - are Najis.

Issue 23: The complete body of a person who has passed away, no matter how recently he has died, and if his body has not yet gone cold (with the exception of those parts which contain no life, like the nails, hair, teeth, etc.) is Najis.
