Cleanliness is the first condition of the Salat. The proper place of worship must be clean. To remove impurity means that there is nothing to cover the mind or body. To cover the body means that nothing is to be covered in the mind, body, or spirit. For example, to make sure that one's clothing is acceptable and acceptable, one must be aware of these conditions and be prepared to meet all of them. The study of the conditions makes worship proper.
