Personal Hygiene and Grooming as Part of Faith

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us the importance of personal hygiene and grooming as part of our faith.

It was narrated from 'Ammar bin Yasir that: The Messenger of Allah said: "Part of the Fitrah is rinsing out the mouth, rinsing out the nostrils, using the tooth stick, trimming the mustache, clipping the nails, plucking the armpit hairs, shaving the pubic hairs, washing the joints, washing the private parts and circumcision'." (Da'if) Another chain with similar wording.
حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي سَهْلٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مِنَ الْفِطْرَةِ الْمَضْمَضَةُ وَالاِسْتِنْشَاقُ وَالسِّوَاكُ وَقَصُّ الشَّارِبِ وَتَقْلِيمُ الأَظْفَارِ وَنَتْفُ الإِبِطِ وَالاِسْتِحْدَادُ وَغَسْلُ الْبَرَاجِمِ وَالاِنْتِضَاحُ وَالاِخْتِتَانُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، مِثْلَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, taught us the importance of personal hygiene and grooming as part of our faith. He said that it is part of our fitrah, or natural disposition, to rinse out our mouths and nostrils, use a tooth stick for cleaning teeth, trim mustaches, clip nails, pluck armpit hairs, shave pubic hairs, wash joints and private parts and perform circumcision. These are all important practices that help keep us clean both physically and spiritually. They remind us to take care of ourselves in order to stay healthy in body and soul.

These teachings also remind us that we should take pride in ourselves by taking care of how we look on the outside too. We should strive to present ourselves with dignity at all times by keeping up with good hygiene habits such as brushing teeth regularly or trimming facial hair when necessary. This is an important reminder for everyone regardless if they are young or old because it helps promote self-respect which is essential for living a meaningful life according to Islamic teachings.
