Background and aim: The pure life or “Hayat Tayyabeh”is a spiritual subject and a genuine Quranic term explained in the religious culture of Islam; this genuine term may be known to be synonymous with the contemporary term “ spiritual health” in the Persian language literature. Allah the exalted and most high has stated in the holy Quran that "Any man or woman who doth a righteous deed provided they have faith in God shall be granted a blessed and eternal prosperous life; and God shall grant them a reward much better than the righteous deed they did. " A life pure and enjoyable is God’s gift to those with faith and righteous deeds and not for the pagans , hypocrites or polytheists.
People may be divided into 3 main groups namely a group which confine life to nature and matter and deny the creator of the world; another group that despite believing weakly in God confine the material life to nature and matter and do not really believe in resurrection. The 3rd group comprise those who have faith and believe in origination and resurrection and accounting of deeds on the Day of Judgment. The belief of people has an effect on their worldly life. In this paper the path to the pure life with its special Quranic attributes is presented along with its reliance upon the lifestyle advocated by Islam. In this context the pure life which is virtually Islamic spiritual health in the worldly life and achieving perfection and eternal prosperity is attainable by following the ordainments of the holy Quran and the teachings of the Prophet (PBUH) and his infallible household; then eternal prosperity is guaranteed. |
