The Four Factors: Check yourself for signs of hypocrisy

Just as our body gives us signals when we tax it too much physically or mentally, with migraine headaches, aching bones, low immunity to seasonal viruses, and muscular strains symbolizing the need for us to slow down, relax and give ourselves some stress-free time to unwind. So too, our actions and dealings with people give us some telltale signs about the state of our spiritual well-being and health. A healthy soul is serene when it is at the peak of faith.

The Preventive and Healing Wonders of Wudu

Prophetic tradition, with regards to wudu, is also ecologically friendly, as the Prophet (peace be upon him) repeatedly encouraged water conservation, even if abluting from a running river.
