4. Do not respect and worship the idols.
Reason for its Revelation:
The Holy Prophet ? says, a voice called out to me at Mt. Hira, that Oh Beloved! You are the Messenger of Allah. I looked left and right, but I could not see the speaker. When I looked up, I saw an angel. I became over-awed and said to Hazrat Khadijah Kubra, place a sheet over me. At that point in time, this verse was revealed.

(74:5) and shun uncleanness,[5]
5. Un-cleanliness implies every kind of filth, whether of belief and thought, of morals and deeds, of the body, dress or mode of life. The verse means: Keep yourself free from the filth of evils which are prevalent in society around you: no one should ever impute to you the blame that your own life itself is stained in some degree with the evils that you tell others to avoid.
[1789]- Specifically, idols or generally, bad conduct and morals.
