Sayyiduna Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us, the people of Quba, he said: “Indeed, Allah Almighty has praised you people regarding purity. Will you not tell me (what deed you do)?” By this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) meant the statement of Allah Almighty: «فِيْہَارِجَالٌيُحِبُّوْنَأَنْيَتَطَهَّرُوْا ۚ وَاللّٰہُيُحِبُّالْمُطَّهِّرِيْنَ» They said: “O Messenger of Allah! We find mention in the Torah of cleansing with water (and so we act accordingly).”
