What is a pure heart? (قلب سليم)

 


What is a pure heart? 

It is a heart which is free of Shirk (polytheism) and free of doubts. It is a heart which is free of malice, rancorous envy, stinginess, and arrogance. It is a heart which does not love evil, and a heart which is content with the Sunnah and free of bid’ah (innovations in the religion).

[Tafseer Ibn Katheer, Al-Jawāb al-Kāfī and  Tafseer As-S’adī]

Translation: Markaz Mu’aadh Bin Jabal
